Forth Sector offers a range of services for individuals who have experienced mental health problems.
We provide appropriate training and a supported work placement within our businesses to help people build their health and well-being.
We currently offer:
- Social Firm Training Placements, which give people the opportunity to participate in a real working environment, whilst remaining on benefits.
- Forth Sector Restart, which is a successful back-to-work initiative for people recently unemployed who wish to regain and return to employment.
There are many people with mental health issues who are not currently in paid employment. This can be due to the stigma associated with mental health, lack of confidence and experience or the fluctuating effects of their health problems.
Forth Sector believes that everyone should have the opportunity to work. We also believe that work, in turn, can benefit individuals by boosting their self-confidence, giving purpose and building health and well-being. There are also wider social and economic benefits of helping clients return to productive work.
Benefits include:
- improved confidence and self-esteem
- better chance of employment
- additional income without affecting benefits
- chance to meet new colleagues
Having seen the profound change that work can make to an individual’s outlook Forth Sector is proud of what it does.
