Abstract
My research explored the helpfulness of co-constructing a career learning and development (CLD) programme with and for adults with mental health challenges. Following a literature review, I adopted a participatory action research strategy, aiming to position a client of the charity where my research was based as a partner in programme design. Emerging themes from semi-structured interviews offered insights into client requirements and concerns, enabling draft programme creation and refinement. In this context, co-construction facilitated delivery of a client-focused, theory-based CLD programme, offering a valuable practitioner learning opportunity, and a vehicle to challenge power relations and pursue emancipatory practice.
