Blackfriars Settlement based in Southwark is using funding to run their Thinking Ahead Project (TAP) over the next five years. TAP is a preventative mental health project that works with beneficiaries to address issues head on and overcome barriers. TAP will provide access to groups that encourage peer support and help improve interpersonal skills. Activities include creative arts computer access and training life skills and support coaching and mentoring to access and progress in learning and work. The programme has been developed to provide transition into greater independence through education learning and community engagement.
