Welcome to Maudsley Charity

Hello!

I’m really pleased you’re exploring working with us at Maudsley Charity. We support people working in mental health care to transform the lives of those living with mental illness and, right now, we’re needed more than ever.

I began working at the Charity three years ago and we have gone through enormous change. We’re now at a vital stage in our development as we are delivering our new strategic plan and have an exciting future ahead.

About the charity

We have made a funding commitment of £44m that will be spent on projects relating to mental illness over five years; this funding comes from our endowment.

We have moved to become a more strategic funder, are gearing up to become a fundraising organisation so we can invest more to meet demand, and are establishing ourselves as a thought-leader in the mental health community.

We work closely with our linked NHS Foundation Trust South London and Maudsley, Kings College London and a wide range of organisations across south London and beyond to make a difference to those experiencing mental illness and to improve their chances of recovery.

Where we work

Our financial endowment allows us to operate as a semi-independent foundation in mental health and as an NHS mental health charity.

South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust delivers statutory services across four inner London boroughs (Croydon, Lambeth, Lewisham and Southwark) and a wide range of child and adult national specialist services.

While we are grounded in and motivated by creating benefit for our local community, we also aim to make our impact go beyond south London by harnessing our funding and national links to make learning and impact reach beyond our four priority boroughs.
