Who we are

We are Inspire North, and we’re here to create a world where everyone matters.

We set out on this journey in 2018 when we brought together the work of Community Links and Foundation, two outstanding charities with decades of experience in mental health and housing. As a parent organisation we bring together this expertise and find innovative ways to provide the very best for the communities we serve. In 2025 we amalgamated to become one unified Inspire North.

We work tirelessly to support those facing mental health problems, dementia, homelessness, domestic abuse, and resettlement to build a brighter future.

We provide award-winning services and accredited training in mental health, wellbeing, housing and domestic abuse. We work across the north of England, from Doncaster to Durham.

Our Values

Collaboration - We will always achieve more together

Collaboration is how we came to be Inspire North.

We were born out of the idea that working together, we can achieve more. Across our services we work with many partners, bringing together our expertise to meet varied needs in exceptional ways.

Integrity - We will always do the right thing even if it is hard.

Integrity is our cornerstone; we will always do the right thing.

We work hard to make sure our services offer the highest quality and professional standards, and that people are treated fairly and honestly.

People - We will always treat people as individuals.

People are the heart of everything we do at Inspire North

We strive every day to build brighter futures for the people who use our services. We engage our colleagues and people who use our services to build a sense of community and shared success. We want everyone to play a part in creating our vision.

Passion - we will always go the extra mile.

Passion is what fuels us.

There’s no better feeling in the world than making a positive difference, and that spurs us on to always go the extra mile – for the people who use our services, for each other, and for our vision of creating a world where everyone matters. We have the brightest and best innovative minds working every day to do more, and to do it better.
