In this episode of Yes to You, the Lifeways social care podcast, our host Paul is joined by Richard Cunningham, Service Development Director for SIL, Lifeways’ mental health specialist. Richard and Paul discuss how SIL supports people severely affected by mental ill health, how its self-contained flat schemes work, and how SIL works in partnerships with local authorities.
