Change, Grow, Live provides a range of services to support individuals, families and communities whose lives are adversely affected by crime, substance misuse, homelessness, anti-social behaviour, domestic violence, social deprivation and lack of opportunity. The charity works with challenging service users with complex needs, including those with entrenched drug habits and offending behaviour.
The Complex Emotions Hub, based at the University of Sheffield and led by Professor Scott Weich, is focused on improving the understanding and care of individuals who experience complex emotional difficulties, such as difficulty managing relationships, emotional regulation, and impulsivity.
DATAMIND, coordinated from Swansea University and led by Professors Ann John and Robert Stewart, is the mental health data science hub of the Mental Health Platform. It’s a multi-site data organisation which has been a resource for researchers, the NHS, charities, policy makers and industry since 2021, and is now one of the six Hubs of the Mental Health Platform.
