Occupational Services
Meaningful Occupation & Creative Resettlement Project (MOP)
Research shows that meaningful occupation promotes purpose and choice, and leads to enhanced quality of life.
Shilhay Community's Meaningful Occupation Project works with around 75 adults of all ages and backgrounds who are homeless or vulnerably housed. The primary objective of the project is to enable people to achieve more purpose, quality and choice in their lives, in order to promote increased self worth and enhanced quality of life.
MOP has three main aims:
- To support individuals in personal development, raise self esteem and improve their life skills
- To reconnect people into social networks and leisure activities away from the streets
- To facilitate training, education and employment opportunities
We work in partnership with many agencies to give the best possible advice and support for people wanting to improve their situation by doing something more purposeful.
MOP provides daily activities, education opportunities and life skills to enable people to achieve their aspirations and re-engage into further education, employment and social networks.
