PLUS DVD

PLUS Perth and The Scottish Recovery Network worked in partnership to produce a DVD resource about recovery.

The main aims of this film are to give hope to people and to help dispel the negative image of mental health problems. It is also used as an awareness raising tool amongst service users, carers and professionals alike.

The DVD includes interviews with people recounting their personal stories of recovery. It illustrates a key message that every person is an individual with a right to recover at their own pace and in their own way. The DVD also includes interviews with people who have been involved in the participants' recovery. This helps to highlight how other people and their attitudes can impact on recovery.
