Why is Community Options different?

The organisation prides itself on developing its services to meet both individual needs and the needs of mental health in the wider arena, working with national and local organisations and partners to achieve a comprehensive and flexible service.

The reality is that people with a mental health problems are able to recover and lead valued lives in the community. Promoting the reality of recovery requires a positive and hopeful environment. At Community Options we strive to create positive environments that provide hope and promote the idea of recovery.
