With autumn just around the corner, it’s the perfect time to think about learning something new. Recovery Colleges across Kent, Sussex and Surrey have just released their Autumn term timetables – and booking is now open. 

These courses are free, designed to support wellbeing and recovery, and are available both online and in classrooms depending on location. Each region offers something slightly different, so it’s worth checking what’s happening near you.

Learning something new this autumn could be just the boost you need – whether to support your own wellbeing, build skills, or simply try something different.
