📸 Here are some of our favourite moments from our Recovery Conference this week!

Thank you to everyone who joined us for a day of workshops, discussions and shared learning focused on recovery, wellbeing and mental health.

It was great to see so many people come together and take part in the conversation.

💙 What an incredible day at our 19th Recovery Conference!

People with lived experience, carers, staff, partner organisations and professionals came together to share stories, learn from one another and celebrate the power of connection in recovery and wellbeing.

Thank you to everyone who attended, facilitated workshops, delivered presentations and helped make the day such a success!

We're delighted to share that Dr Raj Attavar, Consultant Psychiatrist in our learning disability services, has co-edited two new accessible books designed to help people stay safe online: Being Safe Online: Ben's Story and Being Safe Online: Amy's Story.

Part of the award-winning Books Beyond Words series, the books use pictures rather than words to help people with learning disabilities understand online safety, recognise risks and make informed choices with confidence.

This collaboration highlights our commitment as a Trust to making information accessible and inclusive for everyone. Well done Dr Attavar! 💙

Living with a long-term physical health condition can affect more than just your physical health. It can affect your mental health too.

HPFT’s Talking Therapies has launched this year’s Talk for Your Health campaign, focusing on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and the connection between physical and emotional wellbeing. The campaign aims to raise awareness of the emotional impact of living with COPD and the support available through NHS Talking Therapies.

Today is Allied Health Professions Day.

Thank you to all of our AHP’s for everything you do today and all year round 💙.

Some of our AHP’s told us:

“I really value building a therapeutic relationship, in helping service users find a way to explore and express themselves safely as part of their recovery back into the community.” James, Specialist Art Psychotherapist.

“I work with people with learning disabilities using shared music-making. I help them to feel more in control and to experience better relationships with others.” Beth, Music Therapist.

“Having worked as a specialist learning disability dietitian for nearly 11 years, I remain as passionate about my role today as I was when I first started. I particularly value the opportunity to advocate for individuals and help ensure that their nutritional and wider health needs are recognised and met.” - Melissa, Lead Norfolk Learning Disabilities Dietitian

💙 Introducing HPFT Striders!

To mark World Mental Health Day, we've launched HPFT Striders – a new walking and running community. Everyone is welcome - staff, service users, carers or anyone who just wants to join us and get moving.

The group took its first steps together at Verulamium parkrun in St Albans, bringing people together to support wellbeing through movement.

You don't need to be a runner to get involved. Whether you walk, jog, run or volunteer, everyone is welcome.

Future parkruns which will be attended by HPFT are listed on our website. Our bright HPFT Striders t-shirts make us easy to spot, so there will always be a friendly face waiting for you.
