Frazzled is a mental health and wellbeing charity founded by Ruby Wax OBE. We provide free, facilitated peer support meetings for people feeling overwhelmed by the stresses of modern life.

Our online and face-to-face meetings offer a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space where people can share openly, listen to others and feel heard. Everything we do is underpinned by high-quality volunteer facilitation, thoughtful training and a supportive community.

As we continue to grow, we're looking for an organised, compassionate and proactive Programme Coordinator to help deliver and develop our programme of peer support meetings, while ensuring our volunteers feel confident, supported and connected.

Purpose of the role

• Carry out regular facilitator observations, both online and in person, providing thoughtful and constructive feedback.

• Support volunteers to develop their confidence, skills and understanding of the Frazzled model.

• Identify and respond appropriately to safeguarding, wellbeing or performance concerns, escalating where necessary.

• Help develop resources, guidance and processes that support volunteers and improve programme delivery.

• Contribute ideas for new initiatives, projects and ways of working as Frazzled continues to grow.

Team Contribution
