Both services are evidence-based, clinically moderated, 24/7 online peer to peer mental health communities, commissioned by the HSCP and freely available to young people with a Glasgow postcode.
Restart - Supporting people with severe and enduring mental health conditions
Restart is an NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde (NHSGGC) mental health project that works with Glasgow City Health and Social Care Partnership’s (HSCP) Community Mental Health Teams.
The project offers recovery-based support for people living with severe and enduring mental health conditions. Trainees are given the opportunity to take part in various vocational training activities to increase self-belief and build resilience. The programme helps around 250 people each year.

Safer drug consumption facilities (SDCFs) are clean, hygienic environments where people can consume drugs, obtained elsewhere, under the supervision of trained health and social care professionals, reducing the risk of overdose and infectious diseases whilst offering support and access to healthcare and social care services.
