The Centre operates 24/7 to support people living with ongoing mental health challenges and who may be in distress, when they first make contact with the Centre. With the aim of addressing barriers to recovery, we will use a personalised and strengths-based approach to promote self-management, resilience building and connecting positively to Community, Third Sector or Statutory resources which support ongoing wellbeing.

Your unique knowledge and understanding gained from managing your own mental health challenges will be called upon; we recognise, and value how transferable and insightful learning from previous life experiences can be. With passion, and compassion, you will bring creativity and positivity to finding ways to reach out and empower people.

Through sharing learning from your own experience, you will inspire hope and the belief that recovery is possible. Building a relationship of mutuality and information sharing, you will promote self-management and opportunities for improved wellbeing. You will act as a recovery champion within the team and an ambassador of recovery with external agencies and partners. There is also an expectation that you will be involved in the ongoing development of Peer roles and will make a positive contribution to the reduction in stigma associated with mental health issues.

As a mental health charity, we really value the wellbeing of our staff. That’s why we want you to know that you’ll be joining a friendly team, who will give you a supportive environment to help you thrive in your role, including all the training you need to feel confident and equipped.

We can offer you a tonne of employee benefits, and we can promise you’ll be inspired by some pretty amazing humans every single day. We will support you on your own career path; developing new skills, accessing formal and informal learning experiences and providing opportunities to put your continual progress into practice.
