OCD Action : Our Strategy - The national UK charity providing support and information to anybody affected by Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

About Us

Our Strategy

Introduction

This Strategic Plan sets out OCD Action’s vision and the core activities that the Charity plans to undertake from April 2012 to March 2015. It’s purpose is to help the Trustees and the Director plan ahead and ensure that the targets and objectives are clear each year, so that they are confident that all the operational activities work towards achieving the Charity’s vision.

This three-year plan has been developed by OCD Action’s Trustees and staff, with the valued input of the Charity’s volunteers and of some of the beneficiaries of the services provided. It has been written for all of the OCD Action team and for all supporters who have an interest in seeing the organisation succeed.

Some Background

In 2009, OCD Action launched its first three year plan setting out how the Charity planed to grow and develop.

Over the last three years, The Charity has achieved a great deal and is especially proud of the the portfolio of high quality support services it has developed to help individuals affected by OCD. This has proven to be invaluable and has enabled OCD Action to make a real and lasting positive impact on peoples’ lives.

Over the next three years, the Charity wants to maintain this individual support but do more to effect changes on a national level so that even more people can benefit from its work.

By using the substantial amount of evidence and experience that the Charity has gained and by working more collaboratively than ever before, OCD Action believes that it can use its strong voice to campaign for the nationwide action that is needed to improve the lives of people affected by OCD.

For example, we will continue to help an individual to access specialist OCD treatment through our advocacy service but will also now aim to bring about more high quality treatment centres through working collaboratively with leading clinicians, the Government and local NHS institutions. Put simply, the overall theme for the next three years will be “building on solid foundations”. This is spelled out in more detail in the Charity’s new strategic plan for 2012-2015.
