'When I got sick I lost everything. I lost confidence and my memory. I used to forget things. I used to be like a robot. Now coming here I'm talking to people, I am taking charge.'
This report aims to share the experiences and learning from these initiatives and identify key messages for policymakers, commissioners and programme/project developers in understanding the contribution that volunteering can make to recovery.
