Reflections from our staff:

I enjoy working with people from all different walks of life and making genuine connections and changes to a client’s day-to-day life — whether that’s helping with a PIP application or helping them to understand their own mental health. It’s a great feeling knowing you’ve helped someone be heard and then continue to support them on their journey of recovery.
— Jannine, Recovery Practitioner in Exeter & East Devon
What I most enjoy about my role is the fact that no two days are the same. On a routine basis, I’ll be attending multi-agency meetings, recording stats, running a project, and attending reflective practices. With the clients, I’m working on dialectical behaviour therapy one minute, and the next minute an emergency housing situation or a PIP application.
— Dee, Recovery Practitioner in Torbay & South Devon
