This report was commissioned by the charity No Panic to explore the impact of its telephone recovery groups for people with anxiety difficulties.

The independent evaluation was carried out by the research team at Rethink using a three phase study design: retrospective survey of people who had been part of the recovery groups in the previous year; case control study of people going through the groups and a control group from No Panic membership; in-depth interviews with the volunteers who lead the recovery groups through the 12 week course. This report provides a summary of the main findings.
