Welcome To Community Support Network South London
Community Support Network South London (CSN) was formed in 1993, by a group of mental health service users in Lambeth, South London.
In 1996, it obtained funding for an advocate, who worked 28 hours a week at the local psychiatric hospitals. Now it provides in-patient, community and forensic advocacy services. Advocacy exists to empower and enable service users to have more say in their treatment and care and to exercise their rights.
CSN’s funding requires that we work solely with those with a diagnosis or pre-diagnosis of mental illness. For further information about the different services, please contact the relevant workers.
We are delighted to inform you that in January 2021, CSN was awarded the Quality Performance Mark (QPM) for Advocacy.
