Abstract

Neil Robdale describes how the Enable pilot job retention project has been successfully developed into a county‐wide service that aims to step in before people experiencing mental health problems become long‐term unemployed and help negotiate a return to their former job. Key to the success of the service is taking referrals directly from GPs, as well as from the community mental health teams, although this requires considerable investment in promoting the service.
