Recovery Forum
NSWCAG held its annual Recovery Forum on Thursday 4 September.
The day was a huge success! The theme for the 2014 Recovery forum is ‘Whole of Health’.
There was lively discussion on how mental health is connected to other components of health – physical, emotional, social, environmental and spiritual health.
There were panel discussions, group activities and a whole range of interactive workshops on everything from art, exercise and nutrition, poetry, storytelling, goal setting and the environment.
