Our college aims to provide something very different for local people by delivering an innovative educational programme to improve wellbeing.

We have moved away from a clinical focus to an educational approach which empowers people to take control of their health and wellbeing, while learning new skills, making friends and connecting with others.  

Our recovery-focused courses can support people to recognise their potential and make the most of their talents and resources, through self-management. In turn, this can help people to deal with any health challenges they may experience and achieve the things they want in life.

The college is open for anyone aged 18 or over who lives in:

• Heywood, Middleton or Rochdale
• Bury
• Oldham
• Stockport
• Tameside or Glossop

Everyone is welcome regardless of whether they have an existing health condition or challenge, or they simply want to improve their health and wellbeing.

We also welcome those who care for someone – including friends, family and loved ones, as well as any staff working for Pennine Care.
