Conference 09 attracts record bookings
Making Recovery Real, SRN’s national conference 2009, has attracted record bookings with over 450 people applying to attend. We will be working hard to accommodate as many of those people as possible, but can no longer take submissions as the waiting list for this event now contains over 100 people.
If you have applied for a place, and have not been told you are on the waiting list, you should get a confirmation letter within the next week.
If you booked a place but are no longer able to attend then we urge you to let us know so that someone else can take your place.
We are pleased to report that we will be recording and sharing audio from the event, as well as posting presentations on our website to ensure that people who can’t make it can share some of the learning from the event.
For more information about the conference, as well as more detail on the wide array of contributors to the parallel sessions, please follow the link above.
New WRAP Leaflet
One way SRN is working to increase wellbeing and recovery is by sharing and developing tools like WRAP (Wellness Recovery Action Planning), and we have recently developed and published a WRAP leaflet.
