Abstract
The first Recovery and Wellbeing College in the UK was developed in 2009 and to date there are some 220 Recovery and Wellbeing Colleges across the UK and 26 other countries worldwide. Recovery and Wellbeing Colleges were co-created by mental health professionals and other subject experts, working alongside people utilising mental health services, and and co-production lies at the heart of their operation.
