Recovery Devon Podcast

What does it mean to be fully human? How can recovery principles support mental health? Recovery Devon and guests open the mic to views on mental health recovery. Established in the mid-2000s, we became a community interest company in 2012. Based in the South West of England, we support recovery as both a personal vision and an underpinning value base to promote radical change in mental health attitudes and provision. Our community of goodwill includes people with lived experience of mental health issues, their supporters, and families, alongside mental health practitioners.

Episode 5 - Resilient Women

July 20, 2020 • Recovery Devon • Season 1 • Episode 5

In this episode we talk about the resilience of women and how one Exeter based group offers women the space to focus on their strengths and connection with each other.

We talk to Jeanie Lynch, who runs the Resilient Woman's group at CoLab, and Babs, who has been a member of the group for over 2 years. Together we discuss what makes this group so inspiring and how it provides a holistic approach to supporting women on their journey through difficult times. We also chat about crafts, decoupage, creative writing and the additional support that the group will be offering in the future. A big thank you to Jeanie and Babs for being part of the Recovery Devon Podcast, it was a joy to talk to you both.

If you listen to this episode and would like to enquire about joining the group then please contact Jeanie on jeanie.lynch@colabexeter.org.uk
