This is a unique Mental Health Service. It does not offer general advice. The Mental Health Hub offers a 12 month supported placement in our Charity Shop for 18yrs+ in recovery from ill mental health. You can learn new skills, make new friends and build confidence with the help of our MH Support Team. This is a supported role, so you are never pressured and progress through our Retail Training Programme at your own pace, deciding when you are ready to move from behind the scenes to a customer facing role.

We aim to develop other areas of volunteers' lives alongside mental well-being, including:
- assisted access to the Citizens Advice Tendring advice team
- physical well-being
- employment skills
- access to over 30 free accredited education courses
- access to the North Essex Digital Support Team fortnightly drop-in service

We aim to give volunteers a tailored, positive move-on at the end of their 12 month placement, including entry into paid employment to finding the perfect social group.
