Employer Supported Volunteering Manager Jobs in St Katharines Amp Wapping, Greater London

About the role:

When a family member has a spinal cord injury, it can be difficult to acknowledge and accept that their injury will affect you too.

You might find it difficult to express and share how you have been affected by these events, especially to your loved one with the injury. Overwhelming feelings of guilt, helplessness, confusion and isolation are very common. 

Back Up’s Family Support team are there to help. Right from the point of injury, our Family Support Coordinators work together with the family and the injured person to create their own ‘Family Plan’ - making sure they have access to information and support throughout the rehabilitation journey.

As a Family Support Coordinator, you will build relationships with professionals to encourage referrals and manage a caseload. Whether it be meeting family members in a clinical setting, providing a listening ear from someone who ‘just gets it!’, or making referrals for ongoing support from a range of partners or statutory agencies – you will be passionate about being able to demonstrate the impact of what we do, and will see for yourself how Back Up quite literally transforms lives.

About us:

At Back Up, we have big ambitions. Over the next few years, we’re going to be transforming the lives of even more people affected by spinal cord injury.

As well as this, Back Up has been voted one of the top ten charities to work for (Third Sector Best Charities 2020).

Job overview

Job Title: Health In-Reach Navigator 

Reporting to: Health Promotion Manager

Contract Length: Fully funded until the end of March 25 with a good chance of continuation funding.

Hours: Full Time 37.5 Hours per week (30 Hours a week is also an option) 

Leave: 28 Days per year + 8 days Bank Holidays

Salary: £ 30,000 Plus 5% pension 

Location:  The role will require onsite working in our Kennington office and in homelessness services across London. There will also be some opportunity for working from home. 

Candidates who meet the specification, with experience of social exclusion due to homelessness, imprisonment, migration or otherwise being part of a marginalised population, will be given priority access.  

Overview: 

Groundswell is recruiting a Health In-Reach Navigator to join our Health Promotion Team to arrange, develop and run Health Promotion In-Reach sessions in homelessness services across London. 

We know that if you are experiencing homelessness, you will be disproportionately affected by health inequalities and often lack access to suitable information and support that could help you independently manage your health and wellbeing. Our approach: 

• Everyone has a right to access healthcare including screening and preventative services. 

• Health and wellbeing look different for everyone. Health promotion should not alienate people by setting standards that are unattainable but should support them to look at what they can practically do to feel better right now. 

• Everyone’s ‘normal’ is different. Someone who is smoking crack or who is dependent on alcohol might have bodily functions that are different to what is ‘normal’ for the average person. People need to be aware of their own ‘normal’ so that they know when something is wrong. 

The Health In-Reach Navigator will be working with the teams in hostels and day centres, going to the places where people live or go to access vital services like food and showers. Ideally, they will have their own first-hand experience of using or working in services supporting people around homelessness, substance misuse, mental health, poverty, asylum and immigration, or the criminal justice system.

Our services are co-produced by people with first-hand experience of the issues we are trying to address.

The Navigator should be comfortable with continuously evolving and adapting the service, tailoring it to the specific needs of the people we work with, developing sessions informed by direct feedback and direction from people living in hostels and using homelessness Day Centres. 

Our Health Promotion Work 

The Health Promotion Team:

• Deliver group ‘in-reach’ sessions led by staff and volunteers with first-hand experience of homelessness, using health promotion resources to engage people with health issues and talk to them about options available.

• Support clinical services going into hostels and day centres to deliver preventative health measures such as screening and vaccinations. 

• Co-produce and support the development of accessible health promotion resources about health services and health issues with people who have experienced homelessness that inform, advise, and help people manage their health.

• Co-produce health and wellbeing resources for staff working within the homelessness sector, better equipping them to support the people who use their services and improve longer term health outcomes.

• Contribute to producing resources for staff working in healthcare, better equipping them to understand the challenges that people experiencing homelessness might face in accessing services.

We have a range of accessible, targeted materials around vaccination, screening and other health issues that can be used by our team and supported accommodation staff to support sessions. We are planning to develop more of these, particularly looking at screening and rights to access healthcare. 

By carrying out Health Promotion In-Reach in hostels and Day Centres we aim to: 

• Increase awareness of specific health issues, what services are available and the pathways for accessing them. 

• Encourage people to identify their own health priorities, and to address their health concerns, offering them the tools to tackle issues and access services.

• Support people in identifying shared interests in particular health issues and delivering in-reach sessions that demonstrably reflect those shared interests. 

• Reach more people to support with 1-1 appointments through our Homeless Health Peer Advocacy (HHPA) service. 

The group in-reach model enables people with similar experiences to come together and reflect on overcoming challenges. As a project based on Advocacy principals, we do not tell people what they should do; but encourage autonomy to make safe and realistic choices. We: 

• Meet with people to ask what their health priorities are and look at potential topics for upcoming sessions. These topics are then shared with the staff team from the hostel/day centre so they can feed in. 

• Draft an in-reach programme and plan dates, times, and promotion of sessions, involving staff teams at each site. 

• Organise and co-deliver 5-10 sessions on the priorities identified by people experiencing homelessness and the staff working with them 

• All sessions focus on residents’ voices being heard first, then Groundswell facilitated discussion supported and informed by Groundswell health promotion information and/or clinicians. 

The Health Promotion team also work with a range of external partners around screening and preventive care.

We work with partners to arrange health events at homelessness services; promoting the sessions by talking to residents prior to teams visiting and supporting on the day to maximise uptake.

About HHPA  

Our Health Promotion work sits alongside our Homeless Health Peer Advocacy (HHPA) Program. Groundswell created HHPA in Westminster in 2010, to support people experiencing homelessness to overcome multiple barriers preventing access to healthcare, initially through funding from the NHS Regional Innovation Fund. Since then, HHPA has since flourished into a multi award-winning service working across London.

Health creates a foundation to move out of homelessness. Groundswell’s person led health services enable people who are homeless to access the health care they need, so they are not disadvantaged by the health inequalities embedded in our systems. Our health work is  delivered by a team where most people have their own experience of homelessness,  shared experience builds up a level of trust when there can be mistrust of ‘professionals’, because of past trauma or negative experiences.

The service is delivered by volunteer Peer Advocates and staff Case Workers, who build trusting relationships with clients and support them to access, navigate and use healthcare services. They aim to increase people’s self-confidence and improve their ability to independently access the services they need, which can include everything from registering for a GP, dentistry treatment, mental health referrals, hospital appointments, and much more.

Groundswell is unique in bridging the divide between health and homelessness organisations. We work in partnership with numerous organisations across London to support the delivery of our peer advocacy service. 

Health In-reach Navigator Tasks
