Digital wellbeing support and access to talking therapy at the touch of a button.
Thrive app
About the app
We’ve teamed up with Thrive, which gives you access to 24/7 mental health support.
The app features 100+ hours of content with evidence-based tools to support your mental health and wellbeing. It includes guided relaxation exercises, calm breathing tutorials, progress tracking and goal setting and a mood journal.
Unlike other apps, Thrive also gives you the opportunity to request talking therapy, which is then provided at no cost to you. They employ their own therapists with a range of different approaches and can offer talking therapy via phone or webcam after only a short waiting time.
Here’s how to activate your complimentary 1-year access.
How to get the app
Go to the Charity for Civil Servants portal:
- Click the log-in to portal button below.
- Sign in to the portal. Or register for an account if you haven’t got one already.
Once you are in, you’ll need to register for the app:
- Go to ‘Apply for Help’. Then, ‘Services’.
- Select Thrive app from the options and click ‘Start Application’.
Once you have submitted the short application, you’ll get a message in your portal account telling you how to download the app. It will give you an access code to activate your license for a year.
About Thrive
Thrive’s mission is to create a world where people are empowered to take control of their mental wellbeing so they can learn to Thrive, not survive.
It was founded by professionals with 40 years of combined clinical experience with technology.
The in-app therapy service is available 8am to 8pm, Monday to Friday.
Having a conversation about mental health

Stephen’s story
The support from the Charity for Civil Servants has been invaluable to me. It really has had a massive impact on my quality of life. This enabled me to move out but still live close to my daughter. I now have my own space to rebuild my life. At a time when I was starting from zero, I felt like the charity kept me going.
