2025 continued to see changes in the focus of Growing Better Lives. One director resigned in May 2025 and one new director was appointed to the Board in August 2025. We are continuing to broaden our capacity for delivering on our key aims which have developed along lines of consultancy, support and supervision for therapeutic services. Our training and supervisory focus has grown in supporting more international work, with new relationships formed with services in Canada, United States, Brazil, and Australia in addition to our ongoing work with organisations in UK, Europe and India. The changes in the structure of Growing Better Lives has enabled us to embrace new, long term, projects including collaboration with national and international organisations. All of these will benefit our communities by reducing social exclusion and increasing therapeutic opportunities to become involved in a variety of activities that are not available within statutory provision.
Our stakeholders are people across all diversities, living with psychosocial difficulties & the individuals & communities supporting them. We have links with the Institute of Mental Health (University of Nottingham), Royal College of Psychiatrists, The Consortium for Therapeutic Communities, Polyfonia (formerly the International Network of Democratic Therapeutic Communities), British & Irish Group for the Study of Personality Disorders (BIGSPD), Community Housing & Therapy, Mulberry Bush Charity & a network of international non-profits. This is in line with our aim of working towards the development of a wider network of groups involved in delivering comparable therapies, working with Greencare or providing services for similar populations. Our board of directors is collaborative of practitioners & lived experience, with feedback from service users & is vital to help inform the development of our therapeutic consultancy & training.
