Respect - We commit to treating our colleagues, clients, supporters and partners with respect. We value everyone and treat people with dignity and professionalism.

HOW WE DELIVER IMPACT

Our Employment Programme is three times more successful in supporting clients with complex needs to achieve sustained employment than our nearest competitor.

Head Start, our mental health programme, is found to significantly improve clients’ anxiety and depression. 

Through our Support Care Coordination programme, 90% of clients show significant improvements in areas including managing strong feelings, positive use of time, and mental health and wellbeing.

Our reserves policy, overheads and bureaucracy are low versus other charities; we focus our funds on frontline delivery as fast as we can.

We have created and collaborated on pioneering initiatives, which have led to governmental change. We are a strategic partner within all regions of NHS Op COURAGE.

Our client-centric, integrated service model ensures a seamless, supported journey for our beneficiaries. We purposely work with small caseloads of clients most in need, ensuring they don’t fall through cracks.
