From Wikipedia - Reading time: 3 min
Making Space is a charity established in Warrington in 1982 that provides services for people with mental health conditions and their carers.[1] It has about 1000 employees.
It uses Earned Wage Access, which gives staff the chance to access their pay immediately and so avoid the stress of overdrafts.[2]
It has 22 supported living apartments for rent in the historic Academy building on Bridge Street, Warrington. [3] It also runs Psychological Wellbeing Services. During the COVID-19 pandemic in England the counselling and therapy services were forced to work on line, which proved to be more effective.[4]
Its hospital Monet Lodge in Withington was put in special measures by the Care Quality Commission in May 2021.[5]
It runs a supported housing scheme in Bury, Greater Manchester.[6]
It took over Footsteps, a charity supporting families affected by substance dependency in St Helens, Merseyside in 2021 as its first subsidiary.[7]
