As a peer led collaboration based in Dundee, Dundee Volunteer and Voluntary Action will develop and share learning about lived experiences of mental health, wellbeing, and self management. They will do this through peer led, professionally supported training and research.

Experts by experience will gain personal learning, new vocational skills, and accreditation opportunities which will all support their personal development and self management.
