Lived-experience-led in Renfrewshire

The Recovery Collective is a Lived Experience Recovery Organisation, set up as a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation. We are rooted in Renfrewshire and run using a cooperative approach.

We create welcoming spaces and opportunities where people in or seeking recovery can connect, create and belong.

People shape the Collective.

Lived experience does more than inform our work. It helps shape our leadership, programmes, priorities and decisions.

Our cooperative approach

Working alongside people

Members and participants should have meaningful opportunities to contribute ideas, build relationships and influence what happens next. Nobody has to disclose personal experience or take on a particular role to belong.
