Work Well becomes South London and Maudsley Employability Services

team

Our employment support services are introducing a new identity to make it easier for service users, carers, colleagues, and partner organisations to understand who we are and how we can help. 

South London and Maudsley Employability Services, formerly known as Work Well, is the new collective name for the Trust’s 10 employment support teams. 

The services provide tailored support and career coaching to service users in Croydon, Lambeth, Lewisham, and Southwark, who would like help to find or stay in work as part of their mental health recovery. 

Although a new name and identity are being introduced, there will be no changes to the support provided. If you’re currently receiving help from an employment specialist or adviser, this will continue as usual.

Work and mental health 

Good work has been proven to support mental health recovery.  

South London and Maudsley Employability Services are guided by research and evidence about work and mental health to provide the best support for you. 

We can support you with:  

  • finding a job after being out of work 

  • staying in work if you’re at risk of losing your job  

  • managing your health and staying well in the workplace 

  • changing careers or looking for a job that fits your needs better 

  • leaving a job that’s affecting your mental or physical health 

  • dealing with problems like unfair treatment or conflict at work 

Our employment specialists give you one-to-one support, based on your needs and goals. 

 

Who can get help 

Most people who are receiving support from a South London and Maudsley mental health service can use an employability service. 

Our services are completely voluntary - we support people who want to work, but there’s no pressure. If you’re not ready yet, that’s okay too.
