Here are some examples of how we help our clients:

In Person Enquiry.

Mr Jones attended our drop-in service regarding multiple debts which had accumulated when, due to severe and sudden illness, he was forced to finish work. Mr Jones was unable to communicate by telephone due to his illness so needed in person support. He was anxious as his creditors had been contacting him asking him for payments and some were threatening court action.

The Caseworker helped Mr Jones obtain details of all his debts. They arranged a formal Breathing Space to stop further action from his creditors for 60 days. The Caseworker helped Mr Jones complete a budget, checked his benefit income was correct, and helped him claim charitable support to maximise his income. They also looked at practical ways of helping him reduce his bills and expenditure. Unfortunately, Mr Jones still had very limited income to make affordable payment arrangements to his creditors.

The Caseworker then advised him of all the options and solutions available. Mr Jones chose a Debt Relief Order insolvency solution, which the Caseworker completed, to give him a fresh start by effectively clearing his debts.

Telephone Enquiry.

Miss Smith contacted our advice line for help with her energy arrears. She struggled with a language barrier due to a limited level of English and was vulnerable due to a mental health condition. With a combination of several telephone calls, together with interpreting services, the Caseworker was able to successfully help her.

The Caseworker contacted the fuel provider concerned and advised of her vulnerabilities. They requested that Miss Smith’s details were placed on the Priority Services Register. Even though it was Wintertime, Miss Smith had not been topping up her prepayment meter as she could not afford to do so, so arrears via unpaid standing charges, were also accruing. The meter was also in an awkward position, so she found it difficult to access to top up. The Caseworker assisted her in contacting the fuel provider to install a new smart meter which she could access easier. Miss Smith was then able to use an app to top up her meter which she found more convenient.

The Caseworker assisted Miss Smith in completing a budget, benefit claims, charitable support and fuel vouchers. The Caseworker looked at ways of reducing her expenditure and easy energy efficiency measures Miss Smith could undertake herself in her home.

As a result of these actions, Miss Smith then had some disposable income and was able to start to top up her prepayment meter regularly and keep warm. The Caseworker also assisted her with the completion of a successful trust fund application to her fuel provider, to repay the arrears in full.

Requirements

Person Specification:

1. To be appointed as an Energy Debt Specialist, you will need to have knowledge and experience of complex debt casework, covering priority and  non-priority debt advice, options, and insolvency solutions.

This is your chance to make a real impact by bringing people together and building strong connections that drive our lifesaving mission forward.

You will be responsible for:

• a confident and inspiring presence who is able to engage and empower a wide range of volunteers, branches, groups, individuals and businesses
• strategic and flexible in your approach to achieving goals and tackling challenges
• able to work as part of a high-performing team, but equally confident working independently, out and about in your area

To be considered as the Community Manager, you will need:

• Proven significant experience of engaging supporters, volunteers and the general public

• Experience of seeking out and implementing new opportunities for improved performance
• Experience of supporting and nurturing corporate or community partnerships

Amdanom ni

Achub pawb yw ein gweledigaeth ni. Mae’n bosibl y bydd yn cymryd amser hir i ni gyrraedd yno, ond mae modd atal pobl rhag boddi. Hyd yn oed os bydd un person yn boddi, mae hyn yn dal yn ormod. Rydyn ni i gyd yn gyfrifol am achub bywydau. Rydyn ni i gyd yn gyfrifol am godi arian. Ni sy’n gyfrifol.

Mae hon yn rôl gyffrous sy'n canolbwyntio ar bobl, gan sicrhau bod ein bod yn gwneud i wirfoddolwyr a chefnogwyr deimlo eu bod yn aelodau o deulu'r RNLI drwy ein hymgysylltiad, a'u bod yn cael eu gwerthfawrogi a'u cefnogi ym mhopeth maen nhw'n ei wneud. Byddwch yn ein helpu i rymuso ein gwirfoddolwyr yn eu gweithgareddau ymgysylltu, gan gynnwys codi arian, creu profiadau ymwelwyr, datblygu ein darpariaeth manwerthu a chwilio am gynulleidfaoedd a chyfleoedd newydd.

Eich rôl chi

Fel Rheolwr Cymunedol yn Ne Cymru (Gwyr i Sir Fynwy) a Thair Sir yn Lloegr (Swydd Henffordd, Swydd Gaerloyw a Swydd Gaerwrangon), byddwch wrth galon un o ardaloedd arfordirol a mewndirol mwyaf trawiadol y DU, gan weithio yn y cymunedau anhygoel sy'n gwneud yr RNLI mor arbennig. Dyma eich cyfle chi i gael effaith wirioneddol drwy ddod â phobl at ei gilydd a meithrin cysylltiadau cryf sy'n gyrru ein cenhadaeth o achub bywydau yn ei blaen. Byddwch yn cael eich cysylltu â chymuned yr RNLI yn eich ardal a byddwch yn brif bwynt cyswllt ar gyfer popeth sy'n ymwneud ag ymgysylltu - codi arian, manwerthu a phrofiad ymwelwyr.

Dyma beth fyddwch yn gyfrifol amdano:

• Bod â chysylltiad cryf â chymuned yr RNLI yn eich ardal chi, gan weithredu fel y prif bwynt cyswllt ar gyfer popeth sy'n ymwneud ag ymgysylltu - gan gynnwys codi arian, manwerthu a phrofiad ymwelwyr

• Canfod a datblygu ffrydiau incwm newydd a chyfleoedd partneriaeth yn eich cymuned chi
• Amdanoch chi

Byddwch yn gyfathrebwr naturiol, yn berson pobl sy'n ffynnu ar feithrin perthnasoedd, yn rhoi egni i dimau, ac yn gwneud i bethau ddigwydd. Byddwch yn strategol ac yn addasadwy, a byddwch yr un mor gyfforddus yn arwain o'r tu blaen ag ydych chi'n gweithio y tu ôl i'r llenni i gael canlyniadau.

Dyma beth fydd angen i chi ei wneud:

Bod yn bresenoldeb hyderus ac ysbrydoledig sy'n gallu ymgysylltu a grymuso amrywiaeth eang o wirfoddolwyr, canghennau, grwpiau, unigolion a busnesau

Bod yn strategol a hyblyg yn eich dull o gyflawni nodau a mynd i'r afael â heriau

• Profiad o chwilio am gyfleoedd newydd i wella perfformiad a'u rhoi ar waith
• Profiad o gefnogi a meithrin partneriaethau corfforaethol neu gymunedol
• Mae Cymru'n wlad ddwyieithog, gyda'r Gymraeg a'r Saesneg yn cael eu defnyddio'n rheolaidd. Er nad yw'r gallu i siarad ac ysgrifennu yn Gymraeg yn ofyniad hanfodol ar gyfer y rôl, mae’n hanfodol meddu ar ddealltwriaeth o bwysigrwydd y Gymraeg a'i diwylliant
• Mae angen trwydded yrru ddilys ar gyfer y rôl hon

Sylwch fod y rôl hon yn gofyn am lefel sylweddol o deithio yn rhanbarth dynodedig Cymru, Gogledd Orllewin Lloegr, Gorllewin Canolbarth Lloegr ac Ynys Manaw, ond bydd hefyd yn golygu teithio'n achlysurol i asedau RNLI eraill gan gynnwys ein canolfan gymorth yn Poole ac aros dros nos o bryd i'w gilydd.

This support includes one-to-one and group support, funding vital scientific research into stroke prevention, acute treatment, recovery and long-term care, and campaigning to secure the best care for everyone affected by stroke. 

We’re here for stroke survivors and their loved ones, from the moment they enter the new and frightening post-stroke world, supporting them every step of the way as they find their strength and their way back to life.

It’s only thanks to the generosity of our supporters and donors that we can provide vital support. 

Stroke Association is driven by our ambition to improve the lives of everyone affected by stroke. This means we’re determined to create an equitable and inclusive workplace that benefits from the difference, and thrives on the diversity, of our people. Guided by Our approach to solving inequity in stroke, we are prioritising listening to, and learning from, lived experience across our charity.

We are working to improve the representation of this lived experience at all levels within the Stroke Association and we are eager to recruit applicants from a variety of communities and backgrounds.
