Richmond Fellowship is a registered charity, a company limited by guarantee and a registered provider of social housing.
We believe that mental health is everyone’s business and that we are all dependent on each other to a greater or lesser degree for our mental wellbeing. We believe that recovery is a journey, and is different for each person. While there is no single definition of recovery, the achievement of the best possible quality of life for each individual lies at the heart of this journey.
We provide a range of mental health support services:
Our care homes and 24hr supported housing schemes provide round the clock support for individuals in safe, recovery focussed environments, often as a step down from a stay in hospital or as an alternative to being admitted to hospital.
Our employment support services help people return to paid employment, voluntary work or training and to stay in work.
We provide supported housing as a registered social landlord with staff available to help people develop their independent living skills.
Our floating support services provide similar help in people’s own homes, supporting individuals to manage their tenancies, maintain domestic routines and play an active part in their community.
We provide community-based support on a group or individual basis to help people access social networks and peer support, and engage in everyday mainstream opportunities. A lot of our schemes now feature peer support as a core element.
