Description

We are delighted to welcome you to our Health and Wellbeing College.

We offer a range of recovery-focused educational courses, aimed at supporting you to recognise your potential and make the most of your talents and resources, through self-management. This will help you to deal with any health challenges you may experience and to achieve the things you want in life.

We have a range of interesting courses on offer, with a good mix of mental and physical health topics and life skills, and these will continue to expand as the college grows. This joined up approach to supporting both your mental and physical health and wellbeing supports Pennine Care's goal of providing high quality whole person care.

The courses aim to be fun and interactive and will vary in length and duration. We will offer a number of different learning styles, to ensure there is something for everyone.
Every single course is fully co-produced. This means that it is jointly developed by experts by profession (someone with professional skills or knowledge) and experts by experience (someone with skills or knowledge gained through living with a particular condition or health challenge).

We are really excited to be part of this new project that involves working in a different way. We want to move away from a clinical focus to an educational approach and empower people to take control and learn new skills, while making new friends and connecting with others.Our brand new winter term prospectus is now available.

We operate an open door policy to students. Both the Oldham and Stockport campuses offer full disabled access. When you enrol, please speak to us and we will do whatever we can to provide the support you need; we want to ensure you can achieve success during your time with the college.

The college is open to anyone aged over 18 years who lives in:

Heywood, Middleton or Rochdale
Bury
Oldham
Stockport
Tameside or Glossop

This semester we are pleased to offer some courses at our new Stockport campus which is based at Stockport College, Wellington Road South, Stockport, SK1 3UQ
