2015 GSK IMPACT Awards: RESTORE

Part of GSK IMPACT Awards

About RESTORE

Based in Oxfordshire, RESTORE empowers people with mental health problems to recover, secure employment and lead meaningful lives.

A person who is off work for six months has only a 50 per cent chance of ever working again. 80 per cent of RESTORE's clients have severe or enduring mental health problems. It assists people in their recovery and supports them to obtain or keep voluntary or paid employment.

What the judges said:

RESTORE is committed to an issue that is of growing concern nationally - supporting people with mental ill health to maintain or gain employment. Inclusive and collaborative, it is a driving force in improving service provision and overcoming stigma. Its achievements are impressive, exemplifying best practice in a number of areas, and it has a huge impact on the lives of the individuals it helps.
