Peer Pathway
An essential feature of NAWARC is the role and value of Peer; people who have a lived experience of mental health, have progressed their recovery and are willing to share their learning with others. A team of Peer Volunteers, co-facilitate courses and share their stories and recovery journeys. You will be inspired by them as they support your learning and growth.
You can attend specific courses to build your skills and understanding of the peer role which may support you to gain paid work as a peer worker or apply for a peer volunteer role within the Recovery College.
"There have been several highlights, but I think the main one has been being able to be a peer trainee volunteer whilst still learning about my own mental health as well and how it is a journey, we are on together by attending courses"
