What needs to be in place for a peer workforce to flourish?
Fran Lepori, Head of Lived Experience Workforce at CNWL NHS Foundation Trust tells us more in this short film and nifty booklet.
Lived experience roles are an integral part of the mental health workforce. This includes Peer Workers, Peer Managers and Lived Experience Strategic Leads. However, the right working conditions need to be in place for them to succeed.
Central North West London NHS Foundation Trust’s Peer and Lived Experience Workforce has over 150 roles and growing. In this short film our Operations Manager Holly chats with Fran Lepori, Head of Lived Experience Workforce. Together they explore some of the key enablers that provide the infrastructure for different lived experience roles (including peer support roles) to flourish. We’ve also created a nifty booklet highlighting the key points.
