“Peer Support in mental health is essentially people with similar experiences inspiring and supporting each other. This unique approach brings a truly human perspective to distress. Time, empathy and understanding become the norm not the exception. These ideas originated in the grassroots mental health survivor movement. Now, Peer Support Worker or Lived Experience Professional (LXP) or Expert by Experience have become paid careers across private, charity and public sectors including within the NHS. But what do we DO? and who ARE we? What IS Recovery anyway? Have we lost sight of our survivor status and sold out? We use our lived experience to help others – but what does that feel like? Is there anything left of us at the end of the day? Senior Peer Trainer Fiona Eastmond talks to a different person in every episode and digs deep into what it means to be a Peer. Fascinating people with unique journeys reveal a day in their lives and of course, their favourite songs and biscuits. An uplifting and honest look into challenging roles in a changing mental health environment in the UK and beyond.”
