Julian Support Ltd

Who we are

Julian Support was established in 1990 to address homelessness amongst people discharged from psychiatric hospital and the lack of available mental health expertise to support them at that time.

Our purpose remains the provision of high quality, strengths-focused support to help people to improve their mental and physical wellbeing; obtain and maintain safe and secure housing; improve their financial security and make meaningful community connections.

At Julian Support we focus on building a trusted, quality relationship, we listen and seek to understand what is important, we ask about goals and aspirations and make a plan that always allows the person to be at the centre of any decisions made. 

Our culture and values

"Our values are at the HEART of everything we do”

HOPE
Hope comes from finding connections to the people and things that make a difference to our lives. These connections can increase our opportunities and the chance to become more hopeful about the future.

OUR AMBITION:
We foster hope, even in the most challenging of circumstances, by ensuring the people we meet feel seen, heard and understood.

EQUITY
We don’t all share the same starting point in life. Some of us have more advantages, whilst discrimination holds other people back. This doesn’t mean that we don’t all experience difficult times, but our advantages can help us when we do.

OUR AMBITION:
To promote equity by active opposition to discrimination and striving to challenge and dismantle the systems that allow discrimination to persist.

ACCOUNTABLE
We are accountable for what we say and do and we expect to be held to account. We believe that equity and accountability are critical in keeping power and privilege in check. 

OUR AMBITION:
To create a culture of accountability where people are courageous, take responsibility and speak up.

REAL
Being real is about connecting with courage, openness, honesty and integrity. We look for these characteristics in the people we employ because they are at the heart of the relationships we forge. 

OUR AMBITION:
To keep our relationships real by actively connecting with courage, openness, honesty and integrity.

TRUST
Trust is the foundation of successful relationships. Trust is earned, it is not a given. We all have a story about how we got here. Sometimes parts of our story can be difficult to tell. We believe that if we can avoid making assumptions and ensure we treat people with compassion first and foremost, we can help people to build better lives. 

OUR AMBITION:
To build trust through our behaviours and our actions, ensuring that we treat all people with compassion.
