Consumer Advisory Group
Recovery Forum 2014
NSWCAG held its annual Recovery Forum two weeks ago on Thursday 4 September.
The day was a huge success! We had stimulating discussions about how other components of health (physical, spiritual, emotional, social and environmental) influence mental health.
The program featured guest consumer speakers and a range of workshops on art, storytelling, social health, exercise and nutrition, poetry and the environment.
A big thank you to everyone who attended as either a participant, stallholder or facilitator. Your stories and experiences enlivened the forum and it would not have been the same without you.
We've had some excellent feedback from the day. Here are a few testimonials:
- "Before I arrived at the hall in Ashfield i was feeling not quite myself..but before long and by the end of the day i found myself feeling focused, happy, positive and re- energised"
- "I had such a good time and the workshops I went to were amazing, the poetry slam and exercise and nutrition workshop. I felt great being around like minded people and felt a real warmth and connection with everyone."
