Glasgow Association for Mental Health

Established in 1978, Glasgow Association for Mental Health (GAMH) has dedicated over four decades to promoting mental health and wellbeing across Glasgow. Our organisation delivers more than 2,000 hours of community-based support weekly, focusing on preventative and recovery-oriented services tailored to individual needs. Registered with the Care Inspectorate and accredited with Investors in People Gold Standard, we combine professional expertise with lived experience to create inclusive, person-centred support. Our workforce undergoes rigorous training, including bespoke Preparation for Practice Awards and Scottish Vocational Qualifications, ensuring high-quality service delivery. As a Fair Work First employer and Living Wage Foundation member, we prioritise staff development and wellbeing, fostering a culture of mutual respect and continuous learning.

Through strategic partnerships and innovative approaches like our Lived Experience Training, we address systemic barriers to mental health recovery while empowering service users and carers. Our commitment to social justice is demonstrated through pioneering initiatives for ethnic minority communities, young carers, and employability projects. With formal governance structures and transparent practices, we maintain accountability to our stakeholders while adapting to evolving community needs. Our services, from crisis response to long-term support, reflect a deep understanding of mental health challenges and recovery pathways. By integrating service user voices into organisational decision-making, we ensure our values of dignity, autonomy, and inclusion remain central to all operations.
