Our vision is… …….. Our vision is that people with mental health problems in Fife are supported to aspire in life and work and can easily access appropriate support as and when they are ready to make the journey (back) into work. • People will have greater ownership of their journey: they are part of the solution rather than the cause of ‘a problem’ and the voice of lived experience is evidenced at all levels. • Staff across sectors will know how the system(s) work and where to go for specialist support. • Employers in Fife will feel confident to support their staff and to create mentally healthy workplaces.
Potential roles for social enterprise • As providers of work placement and ‘stepping stone opportunities’ • What best model for ensuring people move on? • As destination employers for those with highest barriers • As potential training providers on Mental Health in the workplace • What distinguishes this from mainstream?
