About Us
| Mosaic Clubhouse was established in 1994 and achieved independent charity status in 1998. The mission of the clubhouse is to assist in the recovery of people with mental ill-health. Mosaic Clubhouse provides members with opportunities to work and learn by contributing their talents and volunteering their time to work in partnership with the staff team to manage and run the charity. With twelve years of experience, the Clubhouse provides opportunities for individuals who have been socially and vocationally disabled by mental ill-health, to regain the confidence and skills necessary to lead productive and satisfying lives. The vision of Mosaic Clubhouse is that people with mental-ill health everywhere should achieve their full potential and be respected as co-workers, neighbours and friends. | One of the central elements of the Clubhouse approach is the importance given to the individual rather than to his or her medical diagnosis. Mosaic Clubhouse is founded on the belief that all people, no matter how severely disabled by mental ill-health, have the potential to be productive and the right to dignified and meaningful relationships. The services provided at the clubhouse range from short-term assistance to ongoing support, supplying routes back into the wider community through voluntary placements, paid employment and educational classes leading to nationally- recognised qualifications. Assistance is also provided in the form of advocacy and of help accessing required social services. |
