More About Us

The Derbyshire Independent Living Service is a partnership between P3 Charity and the Derbyshire Federation for Mental Health.

We provide community-based and housing services to help people experiencing poor mental health maintain their home and continue to live independently. This includes advice on accessing benefits, education and employment, how to manage an existing tenancy and avoid homelessness as well as signposting and support for mental ill-health.

This service is commissioned by Derbyshire County Council's adult care services.

We change lives, every day. Your support helps us to ensure that we can.
