Visit us
SMART has two entrances, one that faces the mental health hospital, and another that backs on to the wider Chelsea community. You are welcome to visit us through either.
Meaningful activity
The founders recognised the importance of meaningful activity and training as a way to rebuild lives, giving people purpose, confidence and skills. As the Charity grew it also recognised the importance of friends, music, laughter and fun.
