We have an experienced, talented and motivated team of staff and volunteers and a dedicated Board of Trustees who, together, have built a credible and trusted organisation, with an ambitious strategic plan.

It is an exciting time to join our charity. The profile of mental health and wellbeing has never been higher, so more people feel able to ask for help. There is a growing recognition that early intervention is key to preventing the development of mental health problems, and that people can, and do, recover from mental health problems.
