CYP Peer Support Worker
Band 3
Trosolwg o'r swydd
Do you have lived experience of mental health difficulties in adolescence? Do you want to use your lived experience of recovery to help others?
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a passionate individual with this lived experience to join our award-winning Children and Young People (CYP) Peer Support Team, covering Grantham and surrounding areas (Stamford, Bourne) for 12 months.
Peer Support Workers (PSWs) work with children and young people (CYP), building mutual, strength-based relationships to promote hope and support CYP to meet their recovery goals. We are therefore looking for individuals who can understand and relate to the experiences of young people using mental health services, including the current issues and challenges that impact on young people's mental health and emotional wellbeing.
As the CYP Peer Support Team works across a number of our CYP mental health teams (Healthy Minds Lincolnshire, CAMHS, Mental Health Support Teams, CYP Complex Needs Service), it is important to have excellent communication skills and work creatively to help young people and families have a positive experience of our services.
Please note, applicants will need to be able to travel independently across the county without reliance on public transport.
If you would like to know more about this role, please contact Abbie Futter on 01522 535189.
