Learning and facilitation for mental health and disability
Gerry has run a wide range of trainings, courses and conference events in the area of mental health and disability - both for service users and for professionals in the field.
Comedy and improvisation are terrific aids to developing abilities, overcoming limitations and challenging stereotyping
Gerry was part of the Company Paradiso team which ran May Contain Nuts, a comedy show about mental health on October 10th - world Mental Health Day. A book and video from this project is in production - please use the contact page to let me know if you're interested in any of these.
