Embedding a peer support workforce – webinar on catch up!
Are you interested in growing and embedding a peer support workforce in Scotland?
Lived experience roles are an integral part of the mental health workforce. This includes Peer Workers, Peer Managers and Lived Experience Strategic Leads. In this Peer Connects webinar we’ve brought together learning from Scotland and England to explore ideas and considerations around implementing these roles.
- Francesca Lepori is Trust Head of Lived Experience Workforce at Central North West London (CNWL) NHS Foundation Trust. She shares key insights from embedding a 150 person strong lived experience workforce.
- We also hear from Aoibheann Walsh, Thrive Edinburgh NE Welcome Team Coordinator. Aoibheann shares learning around the positive impact of Peer Supporter roles and why they are making a difference to those who have not got the help they need from statutory services.
