Community Support Network (CSN) is a membership organisation based in South London, established in 1993 by a group of mental health service users in Lambeth. It focuses on empowering individuals by providing advocacy services that promote their rights and enhance their voices in treatment and care decisions. In 2025, CSN received the Quality Performance Mark for Advocacy and transitioned its statutory advocacy services to VoiceAbility following a competitive tendering process. The organisation actively seeks to involve community members, particularly those with experience of mental health issues and from underrepresented backgrounds, in its Management Committee.
