Further education opportunities should be an integral part of community-based provision for people with mental health problems. Yet people with a history of mental health difficulties are under-represented in adult and further education, and many colleges and local education authorities have yet to develop appropriate provision. Reports on a NIACE/FEDA project to raise awareness about the importance and benefits of further education opportunities for people with learning difficulties.
