A new online platform is offering people in Jersey practical tools for improving their mental health.
The Recovery Hub has been set up by Mental Health Services, with input from people who have experienced their own challenges.
It includes free access to courses, activities such as art and exercise, and support aimed at building confidence and connecting with others.
Health and Care Jersey says it is about shared learning, connections and empowerment, rather than clinical treatment.
It aims to give people the practical tools to progress their recovery.
The website includes an online booking platform where islanders can view the available community-based courses and check their eligibility.
They cover topics including managing symptoms, mood, sleep and coping skills.
Some are open to anyone, while others are specifically aimed at those who are under the care of Adult Mental Health Services.
Andy Weir, Health and Care Jersey Managing Director says the hub will help people to get the right help at the right time.
“The Mental Health Recovery Hub is a key part of our all-island approach to improving mental health and wellbeing.
"The hub aligns with our all-age mental health strategy, which was launched earlier this year, and focuses on prevention, early intervention and supporting people to improve their wellbeing and recovery – including creating new connections for people. "
The Recovery Hub wants to speak to anyone with lived experience of mental illness who would like to help in the delivery of the courses, and with any local organisations that would like to partner with the hub to support people's wellbeing.
Groups already involved include Jersey Heritage: Colour our Collection (art), Accessible Yoga, Connection and Support After Suicide (CASAS), Boxing Fitness and Tai Chi.
