Welcome to Sunderland Recovery College. We wish you a wonderful life.
Located near the heart of Fulwell, Sunderland Recovery College offers a welcoming and inclusive learning environment for individuals experiencing mental health challenges. We provide a wide range of courses, workshops, and drop-in sessions, designed to support personal development, recovery, and connection.
What sets us apart is our Peer-Led approach—every course is delivered or co-facilitated by someone who has personally experienced or supported others through mental health challenges. This shared understanding creates a space that’s grounded in empathy, authenticity, and hope.
We are proud to offer:
A safe and non-judgmental community
Opportunities to learn new skills and build confidence
Free access to all sessions, with no cost to participants
Pathways to personal growth, volunteering, and further education
