About Clarendon Recovery College
The Clarendon Recovery College (CRC) is your community centre for lifelong learning and an educational route to recovery for people experiencing mental health issues. Our courses are free for all Haringey residents aged 18 and over. The Clarendon is also available to people who do not live and work in Haringey, but we charge for this provision.
The Recovery College is particularly aimed at people who are using mental health services and their supporters, who include carers, friends or family and staff working in mental health services. The Recovery College is available to people who are interested in knowing more about maintaining their own wellbeing and good mental health or the mental health of people they know. A growing number of our courses are jointly co-produced and delivered by people with lived experience of mental illness and by mental health practitioners.
A new, integrated, adult mental health service

David's story:
As the COVID-19 pandemic hit, I found it extremely difficult to find another job, due to feelings of anxiety, low mood and hopelessness. I was lost and felt ashamed. I was never good at asking for help, but, I hit breaking point. Getting support from Hays on-line employment workshops supported me to re-build my confidence and self esteem. Guidance with my CV, cover letter and interview preparation. I have started a part-time role that is much more manageable.
