We aim for access to our service to be as simple as possible and over half of those we support self-refer. 

Many young people who come to us are experiencing significant mental health difficulties and have faced barriers to statutory services.

Open Door delivers evidence informed practice and has been commended for our ambitious approach to outcome driven care.  We have recently been shortlisted for a Health Service Journal (HSJ) Award for our work improving the mental health of young people, who have been impacted by inequality, in Haringey. 

Open Door is community embedded, integrated into the local mental health infrastructure, commissioned by North Central London Integrated Care Board and part of the Haringey Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service single-point-of-access.  We have a strategic voice which is used to advocate for young people’s mental health and influence practice. Last year we supported nearly 900 young people, parents and carers and offered over 9000 appointments.

This is an exciting time to join Open Door. The candidate will be part of forming and developing a new, small in-house data and evaluation team, to undertake this evaluation of our clinical service.
