At Trusts Motion recognize that mental illness doesn't discriminate, and neither do we. One in four people are affected by mental health problems during their lifetime, and putting mental health first is not a luxury, it is a must. We are particularly motivated by those who are forgotten, alone, or feel excluded from, or unable to access help, and we believe that with the right support, everyone can take control and make the future their own.
Our services focus on education, resources, and community building to create a safe and supportive environment for those seeking help. We believe in breaking down stigmas surrounding mental health, empowering individuals to take control of their mental well-being, and fostering recovery, so that everyone can have a good quality of life with or without the symptoms of mental illness.
Our approach is innovative, with a focus on utilizing technology to make counseling services more accessible and convenient for people. We also prioritize early intervention and prevention by working with schools and other organizations to promote mental health education and awareness.
Our staff are uniquely placed to offer empathy and encouragement because many of them have used mental health services in the past. We are proud that many of our frontline staff are employed specifically to share their mental health experiences with others. Our peer approach to support work is pioneering and increasingly becoming the norm for other organizations worldwide.
Through every contact, we aim to inspire hope and deliver change for everybody and every community we work with. By learning and reflecting on what we do and on how we can improve, we are constantly innovating and piloting new ideas, all focused on achieving better outcomes for people.
At Trusts Motion, we value believing in hope and courage, succeeding together, building trust, celebrating diversity, and learning and growing. We are at our best when we work together - staff, service users, service provider’s, and partners - making the most of each other's talents and strengths.
We want to be good partners to deliver the best outcomes for people: a strong partnership between the person and Trust Motion, and a collaborative strong partnership between agencies. We want to be the mental health and complex needs partner of choice with Ministries, social care, psychologists, therapists, and counseling providers.
