      Steven here, my role is part of the NHS and a well used part of our team. Recovery is the core of the NHS.

      We are all part of the NHS. The NHS is like a really big umbrella and under it is every GP, hospital (psychiatric and physical health), walk in centre and lots more. Sometimes hospitals can be private, where people will pay for services, and some doctors work privately either full time or doing extra work on top of their NHS work.

      I have worked in the NHS and also for independent sectors. There are pros and cons of each. In the NHS you feel more protected and part of a wider body. In the same way as you have state schools and private ones, you can have both types of hospital in the UK.
