Richmond Fellowship has launched a new bespoke Employment and Wellbeing service for people living with mental ill health in the London borough of Hammersmith and Fulham.
Richmond Fellowship has been working with the Hammersmith and Fulham Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) to set up the service, which is available to individuals in both primary and secondary care, regardless of their mental health condition.
As well offering focused employment support, the new service also includes provision for signposting and advice, peer support, befriending and online support.
The services will be rolled out in two stages, with the employment service available from 1 October.
Stephen Smith-Trask, Managing Director of Richmond Fellowship (South) said:
“This is a really exciting opportunity to expand our mental health support offer in Hammersmith and Fulham. The new service will enable us to reach out to even more people in the local community and continue our mission of making mental health recovery a reality”.
