Recovery Action Plans Feedback

We have some great Recovery Action Plans Feedback. See the quotes below from students who took part in the activity. You can learn more about our YRAPs below:

Youth Recovery Action Plans are designed to offer 1 To 1 Youth Support to young people who may benefit more from individual support instead of group-based activities.

The Recovery Action Plan (RAP) has been designed to allow individuals to take a holistic look at their life and identify areas where they can take action to help their wellbeing.

RAPS are tailored specifically for people who may benefit from support in a more one-to-one environment. With the support of a Wellbeing Worker, young people are able to set realistic, timely goals in areas of need.

Many of our Recovery Action Plans have been generously funded by the National Lottery Community Fund.

Read our feedback from this course down below:

Recovery Action Plans Feedback - Student 1: Before: Before I went to the 1-1 session, I was very anxious, low on self-esteem and had a ton of problems building up, making me suicidal and self-harm. I had trouble with my gender identity too. During: The 1-1 sessions were scary at first I had trust issues and was afraid to talk about my problems. But I realised that I was ok, so I started opening up. I spoke about my sleeping problems and we made a plan on how to improve my quality of sleep. I spoke about my anxiety and again we made a plan to help. I spoke about my eating problems and me seeing things that don’t exist. Me opening up helped a lot. It’s difficult to talk to certain people but this time it wasn’t. I felt like she cared. After: I now am able to sleep better, I have an anxiety/calm box to help with anxiety. This really helped me and I would do it again. I feel this would help others too. Student 2: Before the course at home, my brother was telling on me hitting me and pushing me and biting me. I used to kick off. I used to disappear and go and play football. But when I had someone to talk to about all the good things and the qualities it helped me to cope with my problems. I could explain to her all my problems and how I deal with them. She would point out all the bad ways I was using to deal with the situation. Then she would put me in another persons perspective in another persons situation. So she could make me look at my actions and how they were making the situations worse and would suggest other ways of dealing with it. Like going into another room or doing something that makes me feel better and feel positive about myself. YRap is good because the outcome makes them feel a lot better. If it wasn’t there for my problems I would have struggled even more dealing with my problems.
