About Together for Mental Wellbeing
Together for Mental Wellbeing is a London-based charity working alongside people experiencing mental distress to support independent, fulfilling lives. Founded in 1879, it describes itself as the UK's oldest community mental health charity. Its current service information reports nearly 4,000 adults supported each month through 70 services across England.
Its work includes one-to-one community support, supported accommodation and advocacy, helping people express their needs when dealing with official bodies. Service User Leadership places lived experience at the centre of how support is designed and delivered: people influence both their own care and how services are run. The charity also states a commitment to equity, diversity, inclusion and belonging across its services.
Routes into mental health social care
Together recruits across advocacy, community support, criminal-justice mental health and accommodation services. Its careers information distinguishes positions requiring specific skills and experience from opportunities suitable for people entering mental health work without previous experience or qualifications.
Learning and development
New staff receive an induction, with further development discussed through supervision and annual personal development planning. Together also describes mandatory e-learning and opportunities for teams to share knowledge and expertise with colleagues, supporting learning across its services.
