Actively Interviewing
This organisation is scheduling interviews as the applications come in. Don’t miss your opportunity, apply now!
The BNSSG Mental Health Alliance is a network of over 20 Voluntary, Community and
Social Enterprise (VCSE) organisations based across the Bristol, North Somerset and South
Glos (BNSSG) regions, working collaboratively to deliver a range of psychological
interventions for our communities. Commissioned by the Integrated Care Board (ICB) to
work alongside the statutory sector, our aim is to offer holistic and inclusive support for
people experiencing a range of challenges to their mental health including depression,
anxiety, trauma, eating disorders, perinatal mental health. As part of this, the VCSE Mental
Health Alliance recently received funding from the ICB to undertake a review of
psychological therapies within BNSSG, seeking to better align the VCSE and statutory
services in keeping with the new Community Mental Health Framework.
We are now seeking to recruit two part-time Project Coordinators to help us develop this
project over the next 10 months.
About the Project
There is a lack of accessible psychological therapy provision across Bristol, North Somerset,
and South Gloucestershire (BNSSG) leading to gaps in service, some people not accessing
services or waiting a long time to be seen. This is particularly true for people who have
‘complex’ trauma presentations, experience multiple barriers to accessing services and/ or
require evidenced based and trauma informed interventions to address their needs.
Much of the therapy that people access in Primary Care outside of NHS Talking Therapies
and Secondary Care, is provided in the Voluntary Community and Social Enterprise (VCSE)
sector, by specialist charitable organisations. This therapy is unevenly distributed across the
six localities in BNSSG.
Womankind completed Phase 1 with a comprehensive report on VCSE talking therapies
provision, (January 2024).
Bristol Mind and Womankind are members of the VCSE Mental Health Alliance and are
leading on Phase 2 of the project.
Job purpose and responsibilities
To reach and represent our diverse membership, we are recruiting two part-time Project
Coordinator posts who will work collaboratively to plan and deliver activities. Project
Coordinators will be managed separately by our organisations.
The Project Coordinator(s) will be responsible for the successful delivery of Phase 2 of the
project and will work in collaboration with key stakeholders to support the re-design of a new,
integrated model of care that will optimise psychological therapies provision for the people of
BNSSG.
Role Description
1. To work in collaboration with key stakeholders.
2. To collate referral and signposting data between statutory & VCSE Psychological
Therapies services, tracking service-user journeys and gaps in provision.
3. To undertake targeted ‘deep dive’ consultations with evidence-based VCSE
Psychological Therapies providers (121 and group), drawing out information on
numbers/ sessions, waiting lists/times, geography, presenting issues, equity-based
offers, service and clinical outcomes.
4. To work closely with Lived Experience groups to identify key system blocks and
solutions relating to referral pathways, waiting times, choice/ flexibility, co-design and
service-user voice.
5. To support the design of a new integrated model, working closely with the VCSE MH
Alliance and wider Evidence-Based Practice Steering Group in order to agree key
elements.
6. To support the design and delivery of a ‘test & learn’ approach to piloting the model,
working closely with lived experience volunteers and an external research consultant.
7. To contribute to a final report designed to recommend best practice, promote interagency training, and support joined-up mental health provision across BNSSG.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
