MP Shaun Bailey Visit to Neptune Health Park 🌼🌳
MP Shaun Bailey visited the Neptune Health Park earlier this month. Neptune Health Park is an area for our students to connect with and be at one with nature, but also how it can be great for your mental and physical wellbeing. Whilst helping the team with planting Shaun talked to our friendly team about the support and service we are providing here at The Recovery College.
National Carer's Week
On the 6th – 12th June it was 'National Carers Week'. National Carers week is to raise awareness of caring, an highlighting the challenges unpaid carers face and recognise the contributions they make to our families and communities. To help raise awareness of people who don't think of themselves of having caring responsibilities to be identified as a carer. It also helps carers to discover different support/services that are available to them. Our team visited Sandwell carer's celebration at Sandwell Carers Mental Health building on Bristnall Hall Rd, Oldbury. Where we talked to other carers about the support and service that is provided here at The Recovery College.
