This is an opportunity to join a small dedicated team and directly deliver a leisure break activity programme.

In this role with Richmond Carers Centre, you will plan, deliver, promote and review a programme of activities for adult carers. This will include outreach activities and leisure events, as well as group work to help enhance carers’ health and wellbeing.

The core aim of the activity programme is to provide carers with a much needed break from their caring responsibilities, in a safe and social environment where they can meet other carers and focus on their wellbeing.

Applicants will have proven experience of working with carers or other vulnerable groups on an individual and/or group basis, recognise the importance of being client focused and have a commitment to enhance the lives of carers. You will be able to demonstrate a broad knowledge of carers’ needs and a wide range of skills in relation to working with individuals and groups.

You will be self-motivated and positive in your approach to working with both carers and staff, along with strong administrative, time management, IT and organisational skills. The ability and willingness to occasionally work outside normal working hours is required.

The closing date for applications is midnight on Sunday 8 May 2022.

Interviews will be held online week commencing 23 May 2022.
