Partner organisations

MTFJ has created partnerships with other organisations and businesses to provide additional support and expertise in specific areas.

 

CLEARHEAD

Clearhead provides mental health support online, that you can share with your jobseekers. On their website you'll find resources related to topics such as anxiety, stress, personal growth and more.

Clearhead also offers access to mental health practitioners for your jobseekers, usually online but face-to-face is an option too. They have a large database of professionals, so you can help jobseekers choose the right support.

MTFJ has a special rate for this service. Your programme covers the professional fee plus a 20% administration fee.

It's a good idea to sign up for Clearhead and explore their website so that you're familiar with the system when you assist a jobseeker in booking a session.

If your council or employer doesn't offer EAP or a similar service, Clearhead services and rates are available for all MTFJ staff. Just follow the usual steps, but use your own details and budget to pay for it.
