Conference theme 2025: ‘Reimagining Recovery
This year’s event will have a focus on 1) the role of lived experience in embedding and supporting recovery; 2) new perspectives around mental health and recovery; 3) extending recovery beyond mental health.
On 4th and 5th September 2025, the Recovery Research Team will host the 7th international Refocus on Recovery conference, in partnership with the Global Mental Health Peer Network, Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, ImROC, and the McPin Foundation.
We invite you to join us in the central Nottingham Crowne Plaza Hotel to “Reimagine Recovery”.
The conference will be organised around three themes, developed with our partners:
- Theme 1 – The role of lived experience in embedding and supporting recovery
- Theme 2 – New perspectives around mental health and recovery
- Theme 3 – Extending recovery beyond mental health
Abstract Submission:
Abstracts can be submitted from 18th November 2024 - 28th February 2025.
Visit the Research into Recovery website for more details when this is open.
New for 2025: All accepted abstracts will be given a presentation slot, either as a 20-minute extended presentation, or as a 1-minute lightning talk. In selecting abstracts for inclusion, the conference scientific advisory board will seek to strike a balance between lived experience perspectives and empirical research studies, to create an outwards-facing conference that has value across the recovery research community.
We recognise that connecting with others is an important motivation for taking the time out to attend a conference. Our conference will feature substantial time for networking and community building, with initiatives to help integrate delegates who are attending the conference for the first time. We adopted this approach for our 2023 conference, and the feedback we received from delegates showed that time to talk with others was important.
