Description

HOPE course living with long-term physical or mental illness

Living with long-term physical or mental illness? Want to make a positive change?

The Help Overcoming Problems Effectively (HOPE) Programme is a free six-week self-management course designed to support people living with low-level anxiety and/or depression.

The programme encourages you to focus on yourself as a person and explore the question:

"What is important to me?"

By bringing together people with similar experiences, the course provides a supportive environment where you can build confidence, develop practical self-management skills, and realise that you are not alone.
