Restore Limited

Who we are

Mental illness affects one in four of us in our lifetime, but people can and do recover.

Restore is an Oxfordshire-based mental health charity that supports people to take control of their recovery, develop skills and lead meaningful lives. We offer recovery groups, trainingand employment coaching to make this possible.

We are one of the longest established and most highly regarded community rehabilitation services in the UK. Founded in 1977, we are part of a partnership of local mental health organisations with a commitment to helping people to recover, stay well and participate in and contribute to the life of our county.

Who do we work with?

We work with anyone who feels their mental health problem is having a substantial and long-term negative effect on their ability to carry out normal day-to-day activities. Mental health issues can include psychotic illnesses (such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder), depression and anxiety disorders.

Restore’s vision, mission and values were developed in consultation with our members, trustees, volunteers and staff.
