What is a lived experience Peer Mentor

Lived Experience Peer Mentors are individuals with personal experience of life-changing mental health challenges who are employed to use that experience to support the personal recovery of others and contribute to recovery-orientated, trauma-informed service and practice. Lived Experience work is complementary to both informal peer support and clinical services.
