A new conversation series from Scottish Recovery Network. With a different guest each episode these podcasts bring you insights, ideas and inspiration from people using their lived experience to support others and develop peer approaches.
Our guest this episode is Rai Waddingham who will be sharing her experiences of participating in and facilitating peer support groups. Rai hears voices, sees visions and has a whole range of experiences many label as ‘unusual’. At times these have overwhelmed her, leading to a range of diagnoses she no longer identifies with. Having managed the London Hearing Voices Project for many years, working with people who hear voices or have unusual beliefs across youth, adult and prison settings, she’s now Chair of the English Hearing Voices Network. Rai is an independent trainer, a writer and an Open Dialogue Practitioner. She’s also studying for a PhD in Survivor Knowledge.’
