Studentship

Be a student with us! The easiest way to get involved is to dive into our courses, workshops and learning opportunities and engage with something that sounds interesting.

You can access courses and book onto sessions by signing up via app.humberrecoverycollege.nhs.uk.

As a student, you’ll also occasionally get surveys and invitations to get involved in other ways to help shape the direction of the College.

Extra-Curricular Opportunities

There are lots of opportunities to share your skills and expertise by participating in the College. If you are interested in any of the following, let us know by emailing us at HNF-TR.RecoveryCollege@nhs.net.

Course Development

Do you have some lived experience wisdom to share? Possess some expertise around a certain subject or topic? Want to share your passions with other people?

The Recovery College wouldn’t be a Recovery College if people didn’t come forwards and work towards producing and delivering new courses.

If you would like to actively develop a course - whether you’re a student of ours, a health and social care professional or a community organisation - the first step is to let us know by emailing or phoning us.

We will then have a chat with you and help make a plan of action. We can offer a range of guides and templates, provide practical support and help you get in touch with other collaborators.

Recovery Club Podcasts

The Recovery Club is a podcast designed to open up conversations around mental health and wellbeing, exploring different areas of mental health whether that be battling addiction, combating loneliness or living with specific mental health conditions amongst others. The podcast aims to promote non-judgemental conversations with real people sharing their stories, their lived experience and their positive coping mechanisms which allows them to improve their mental health and wellbeing.

The Recovery Club is always looking to raise awareness of mental health by constantly expanding the conversation, so if you feel passionately about a subject and want to come on the podcast to share your insight then please reach out and our host Joe will talk you step by step through the podcast process.

Volunteering

Would you like to be part of the team in a more formal capacity as a Trust volunteer?

Do you have skills, knowledge or experience that you’d like to share in a more formal capacity with us? Would you like to develop new skills or get some work experience?

We’re always welcoming volunteers into the team, and we’re very flexible in accommodating your skills and supporting your development goals.

Here are just some of the things you might like to do:

  • Creating co-produced courses, workshops or learning opportunities
  • Tutoring
  • Peer Supporting
  • Leading a peer-led initiative (e.g. student union, coffee groups, student society)
  • Admin
  • Social Media and Communications
  • Media Production (i.e. podcasting, filming, video editing, interviewing)

Facilitated by the Trust’s Voluntary Services, you will get a free DBS check, training and support, as well as be part of a fantastic Humber volunteer community. You can choose to volunteer solely with us, or share your skills elsewhere within certain teams, on wards, in the community, supporting with admin work or as a driver.
