As the momentum for personalization and recovery approaches grows, service users are increasingly participating as partners in all aspects of health and social care delivery, planning and professional training. This conference provides a timely overview of personalisation and recovery in mental health.

This study day looks at the cross-over between personalisation and recovery in mental health. It examines if, and how, personalised choices can facilitate the recovery journey and what needs to change both systemically and culturally to ensure that they do. This will include a look at the interface between health and social care. The study day will involve keynote speakers, interactive workshops, a panel debate and stands that will explore the theory and evidence base to date. You will also hear about some on-the-ground examples of innovative personalised services and support and their impact on the lives of service users and carers.
