Recovery Colleges

Recovery Colleges provide a safe space where people can connect, gain knowledge and develop skills.

Gateway Recovery College – Cumbria, Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust

The Gateway Recovery College runs within Secure Care Services at Cumbria, Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust. Courses are co-developed and co-delivered. We provide collaboratively delivered education, where students can share and learn from each other’s insight, skills and lived experience. We aim to facilitate the learning of skills which promote recovery and underpin greater confidence. Students will be able to identify with and be motivated by the changes; this will be evaluated using a wellbeing evaluation tool.
