Take Off

Take Off Take Off charity supports people with lived experience of mental health difficulties We say that because we are all people who have been and are doing that.

Take Off started in 1998 and since then we have become leaders in the provision of innovative services using the effective Peer Support model. Peer support involves people with lived experience of mental or physical health problems sharing their experiences of how they stay well. We believe that people who experience long term mental and physical health conditions can have more control over their

health and can play a greater role in improving their own recovery and wellbeing. Peer Support Workers work directly with people with a mental health problem to help them improve their mental and physical well-being by managing their social care needs more creatively. This can include people with a Personal Budget/Direct Payment, where is is often referred to as brokerage.
