FEAST
We have a long-standing partnership with the wonderful folk at FEAST, who provide us with the volunteers and chefs who cook our popular and nutritious community meals. FEAST exists to improve the nutrition, wellbeing and health of people at risk of food insecurity in London. Through both the regular weekly meals they provide at our community centre, and ad hoc workshops they offer around healthy eating on a budget and nutrition, they make a big difference to our community’s health and wellbeing.

North London NHS Foundation Trust
Between 2020-2026, Likewise was commissioned by Camden & Islington NHS Foundation Trust to provide one-to-one support and community development work as part of the Camden Community Mental Health Core Teams offer. This was a partnership between Likewise, MIND in Camden, Likewise and Hillside Clubhouse. The teams comprised NHS, social care and voluntary sector experts from a variety of backgrounds and training and emphasised a focus on mutual learning and person-centred care.
Nordoff & Robbins
Our music therapy is delivered by wonderful therapists from Nordoff and Robbins, the UK’s largest music therapy charity. Working one-to-one or with small groups, the music therapists create a platform for people to express themselves and share a connection. No one is being taught, no one is being fixed. Therapist and client make music together as equals, responding to each other’s cues. No two sessions are the same, because no two clients are the same.

Every month they bring the benefits of their Zen sessions to Likewise operating from their distinctive converted American schools buses.
