Closing

As a Senior Practitioner, you will have delegated supervisory responsibilities, including providing day-to-day guidance and support to staff, but you will not hold overall management accountability for the service. You will contribute across multiple projects by helping to create safe, inclusive and person-centred environments where people feel believed, respected and heard, and where they can take part in meaningful activities that build confidence, resilience and sustainable self-management of their mental health. Change Mental Health offers a community-based Hub at The Gatehouse in Golspie, providing non-clinical, person-centred support in a welcoming environment where people can take part in group activities, peer support and recovery-focused opportunities. The Hub supports people to build social connections, develop knowledge, skills, confidence and resilience, and improve their mental health and wellbeing. Activities include: art; mental health self-management programmes and workshops; walking groups; gardening; wellbeing sessions and confidence-building opportunities. Change Mental Health also offers Outreach support, which is a Care Inspectorate Registered service. This service provides person-centred, outreach support to adults affected by mental illness in their own homes, in line with the Health and Social Care Standards and relevant policies, procedures and regulatory requirements. We serve the surrounding community of Sutherland with non-clinical emotional and practical support that helps people build the knowledge, skills, confidence and resilience to self-manage their mental health and wellbeing, using practical tools, coping strategies and signposting to the most appropriate next step in their journey.

Alongside line managing hub-based and outreach Mental Health and Wellbeing Practitioners, you will provide guidance, support and supervision that promotes reflective practice, excellent service delivery and positive staff development. As a Change Mental Health Senior Mental Health and Wellbeing Practitioner, you will be experienced in providing direct support to individuals experiencing poor mental health/ living with mental illness. You will work directly with individuals helping them achieve the best possible outcomes across their mental, physical, emotional and financial health. You will empower people to self- manage their mental health, build self‑confidence, reconnect with others, and become more integrated within their local community.

£27,285
On site: Based in Dalkeith with travel throughout Midlothian

The role will be primarily office-based, with regular travel required to community venues across Midlothian.

Volunteer Coordinator

Glasgow Disabled Scouts
Part time
£26,390 - £31,850
Remote: Glasgow. Working from home, with regular attendance in person at Monday evening sessions and recruitment events
Closing

Glasgow Disabled Scouts (GDS) gives young people aged 8 to 25 with disabilities and additional support needs across Glasgow the full Scouting experience: camps, friendships, adventures and independence. We're a charity run entirely by volunteers, from those aged 14 and up right through to our longest-serving leaders, and none of it happens without them. We're looking for a warm Volunteer Coordinator who enjoys working with people to join us. The role is all about people: making every new volunteer feel welcomed from their very first enquiry, guiding them through joining, keeping in touch as they settle in, and being a familiar face at our Monday evening sessions. You'll be the first person a new volunteer hears from. You'll respond to enquiries, have the first conversation with each new volunteer, guide people through the PVG and training process, and meet them on their first night. You'll attend volunteer fairs, university and Duke of Edinburgh events to bring new people in, and build relationships with the schools, colleges and organisations that send volunteers our way. Once people are with us, you'll check in, take an interest in how they're getting on, and help make sure they feel part of the team. Someone warm, outgoing and reliable, who enjoys people and is good at keeping things moving. You'll be organised enough to manage a busy pipeline of enquiries and personable enough that a nervous new volunteer of 16 and a leader of ten years both feel at ease with you. Experience in volunteer coordination, recruitment, youth work, education, customer service or another role working closely with people would be useful, and transferable skills are very welcome. Experience of youth clubs, community groups or other volunteer-led organisations would be a bonus, not a requirement. We can teach the process. How you make people feel is what we're really looking for. 14 hours a week on average, with the hours shaped by what the role needs rather than fixed days. Volunteer recruitment comes in waves, with September and the start of term especially busy, so you'll need to flex up when enquiries are flowing and will have more breathing space at quieter times. Being responsive during the week matters, and because all of our sections meet on a Monday evening, being there on Mondays is an essential part of the role. Around that, we're happy to talk about flexibility that fits with your other commitments. 18-month fixed-term contract with the potential for extension, subject to funding. £14.50 to £17.50 per hour depending on experience (£26,390 to £31,850 full-time equivalent, pro rata to 14 hours, around £10,550 to £12,750 a year). A PVG check will be required.
