Mental Health Service

We provide a number of services for people with a mental illness. Many people who suffer a mental illness cope with help and medication from their doctor. For anyone who needs extra support, there are a number of services we provide.

We Provide Day Care Training from a Number of Centres

The type of support we offer, depends on the client’s specific needs. For some people this involves taking part in discussion groups to develop self-confidence. Others find value in taking part in art or drama. And others need help on a more individual level. Other people feel reassured that they can ‘pop’ to the centre when they want to.

Supported Living Schemes

We have developed a number of supported living schemes with various housing associations. Clients become tenants of the housing association and we provide support.
