Our collaborative project with people who have experienced some form of mental distress is about to be launched. If you are interested in contributing material - photographs, poems, short stories, paintings, drawings, etc - to be included in a book demonstrating what recovery means and looks like to you, get in touch with Rob - T: 020 8590 2498 - Email here. We have set up a separate 'Recovery Is...' Blog to keep you updated, as well as showcase work we receive. We hope that this will provide inspiration to others to get involved. Here are some examples to help stimulate your creativity:

We hope that the creation of the book will challenge stigma and descrimination around mental ill health issues. We are also very aware that some may want to provide material but want to remain anonymous. This is absolutely fine. Contact us to find out more Or visit the HUBB website which has a dedicated page to the project.

If you are interested in the potential of this form of collaborative and participative project you can view pages from a book 'Through Our Eyes' that Rob created with four young people from the communities in Mumbai HERE,
