‘Assessing the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of Recovery Colleges in England (Work package 4 of the RECOLLECT (Recovery Colleges Characterisation and Testing) Programme Grant for Applied Research)’
This project is part of the larger RECOLLECT programme (PGfAR; NIHR200605) which aims to develop the evidence base for Recovery Colleges in England and understand how they can provide the most benefit to people who use mental health services. We will use electronic health records to compare all students who have ever attended the Recovery College at SLaM with mental health service users who did not attend the Recovery College in order to explore routinely collected outcomes. These will include clinical outcomes, as well has psychiatric and general health service use over time.
