Bring all your questions to Gaddum’s free online Q&A to ask anything you’d like to know about working with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) in peer support.
The Q&A will be led by a peer group facilitator: Rachel brings lived experience of OCD. She reflects on the many ways recovery can look over a lifetime – raising questions about whether recovery always means the complete absence of difficult thoughts, or whether it can also mean learning to live well, safely and meaningfully alongside them.
Drawing on her own journey, and that of family and peers, Rachel offers an honest, compassionate perspective that holds space for both hope and reality, aiming to make this session open, reflective and grounded.
Rachel is also a member of several support groups both nationally and locally where she contributes as a peer support worker and helps moderate online forums to moderate public responses to general posts.
Free to attend and open to all Greater Manchester peer workers (whether you are experienced or new to the role) working across Bolton, Bury, Manchester, Oldham, Rochdale, Salford, Stockport, Tameside & Glossop, Trafford, Wigan & Leigh.
