Our Vision:
We are a charity that delivers transformational services to adults, children, young people and their families across West and North Yorkshire. At Foundry Mill in Leeds, the charity’s supported housing scheme for adults with Mental Health issues, our staff recognise that making that first step on a recovery journey can be really hard. We know that asking for help can be really difficult and that’s why tenants are always treated with respect and with sensitivity. It is a cliché, and a true one at that, but a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. We are there for tenants when they start their path to independent living, giving them the support, guidance and encouragement, they need.
