What we do

SMART offers a range of supported work & training opportunities in a relaxed and friendly environment. Our activities are focused on helping people build both practical and personal skills, gaining experience and confidence to improve work opportunities as well as independent living skills.

Full membership is open to individuals with either a mental health diagnosis or complex, severe and enduring mental health needs. We also have options for a Social membership and our SMART café is open to everyone. See more information about our Membership here.

We have a contract with RBKC which means residents can use our services for free. You are still welcome to attend SMART if you live outside of RBKC but you will need to access Direct Payments via your Local Authority. Please speak to your care professional about this.

Café & Catering

Everyone’s welcome to join us at the café on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, from 10.30am – 4.00pm. We serve hot drinks, cold drinks, and snacks, including the cheapest (and tastiest!) teas and coffees in Chelsea. During this time, there are Crafts available – an opportunity to sit down and decorate greeting cards, gift boxes, and colouring to either take home with you, or give to SMART to sell at our events – in exchange for a drink and some cake. As well as this, SMART also provides catering for events.
