Story
Each year Restore helps around 800 people in recovery from mental ill-health at their Recovery Groups in Oxfordshire. Here service users can learn new skills or develop existing skills, and socialise with peers who have experience of mental ill-health and are on a similar recovery journey. The routine, skills, and confidence that they gain from attending Restore help them to prepare to get into work, for some people for the very first time. Everyone has mental health, but not all employers understand the implications of mental health crises or place value on mental wellbeing. Restore wants to help to eradicate stigma surrounding mental health, and empower our members to realise their potential and be part of their community.
