Tracy Gray

My name is Tracy Gray and I am a Lead Peer Educator working with Innovation Recovery Project. I deliver educational programmes to aid recovery and to build mental health resilience and well-being. I have a background in training and education and a Degree in Community Development. I have worked within the community and voluntary sector for 20 years designing and delivering community based projects. I was first introduced to WRAP in November 2018 and after completing my WRAP Level 1 course I have really integrated the WRAP concept and values into both my personal and professional life. WRAP empowered me to regain personal responsibility and to know that I am the expert in myself. WRAP supported and introduced a positive change in my day to day life and helped me to reflect on my own life experiences and to extract from those valuable lessons about what works for me and what doesn't. What I like most about WRAP is that it is a self-managed realistic tool put together by me. I feel my personal lived experience has enabled me to connect with others and support them in their recovery journey. I feel very privileged to be part of a very rewarding and positive programme.
