We are excited to offer the opportunity for a  Support Worker role in the Mansfield and Ashfield  Mental Health Support Team, which works alongside schools providing early intervention work and promoting mental health. 

We are really keen to hear from people who have experience in working in a CAMHS setting or perhaps those who have worked with children, maybe in a youth worker capacity or as a teaching assistant.

A full UK driving licence and vehicle for business use is required for this post; however reasonable adjustments will be made for disabled individuals in line with the Equality Act 2010.
