Abstract

If we are to deliver services that encourage recovery from mental illness, it is essential that there is a vision of a future where recovery from mental illness is both possible and understood by communities, services and staff. Piers Allott provides a brief introduction to the concept of recovery from ‘mental illness’, proposes a vision for recovery, and flags up ways in which recovery practice can be taken forward.
