The Peer Recovery Worker will support people who are sleeping rough, at risk of rough
sleeping, or going through important stages in housing and recovery. The main purpose
of this role is to help reduce the harm caused by rough sleeping.

services that can meet their needs.

You do not need to have all the answers.

We are looking for someone who is kind, reliable, calm and able to support people
without judgement. We welcome applications from people who have lived experience of homelessness,
addiction or recovery, and who feel ready to use that experience to support others

• Help people identify their own goals, strengths and next steps.
• Support or co-facilitate peer, recovery or wellbeing activities where appropriate.

Practical support and navigation

• Provide clear, accurate information about local treatment, health, housing, benefits and community services.
• Introduce people to co-located services at WSUP and help them understand what each service can offer.
• Provide warm handovers and accompany people to appointments where this is helpful, agreed and within the service plan.
• Help people with practical tasks such as phone calls, forms, identification, benefits enquiries and gathering information for appointments.
• Work closely with treatment, outreach, housing, health and other partners so that support is coordinated and responsibilities are clear.
• Advocate for people when stigma, exclusion or difficult processes create barriers to support.
• Support people at key transition points, including moving from the street into accommodation, leaving hospital, prison or treatment, or returning to services after disengagement.
• Help people connect with local groups, activities and community support that may improve wellbeing and reduce isolation. 
• Support day-to-day service delivery by staffing open sessions including Saturdays (on rota), covering reception duties and attending relevant team and management meetings.

YEF Detached Youth Work Area Lead

Relationships change lives.

At M13 Youth Project, we believe every young person deserves trusted adults who believe in them, walk alongside them and help them discover who they are, what they have to offer and the difference they can make. For over 30 years, we've built those relationships through detached youth work - meeting young people where they choose to be, listening deeply and creating opportunities for belonging, belief and hope.

We're now looking for an experienced Detached Youth Work Area Lead to join our team and play a key role in one of the UK's most ambitious detached youth work research pilots.

M13 is leading the Greater Manchester consortium delivering the Youth Endowment Fund (YEF) Detached Youth Work Pilot. The Pilot aims to build a strong evidence base for detached youth work, combining outstanding frontline practice with rigorous evaluation to shape the future of youth work nationally.

Reporting to the YEF Detached Youth Work Project Lead, you'll work across three neighbourhoods and lead detached youth work in at least two of these, within M13's delivery of the pilot. You'll be responsible for delivering high-quality detached youth work outdoors in public spaces (on streets, in parks and other community spaces), modelling excellent relational detached youth work practice, supporting less experienced colleagues through day-to-day practice, contributing to monitoring and evaluation, and building positive relationships with young people, local residents, community organisations and partner agencies.

This is first and foremost a frontline detached youth work role. You'll spend much of your week in outdoors in parks, streets and neighbourhoods, building trusted relationships with young people through conversation, consistency and purposeful informal education. Alongside this, you'll help ensure high-quality implementation of the YEF Shared Practice Model within your neighbourhood patches, contribute to monitoring and reporting and work closely with the Project Lead and wider team to support the successful delivery of the pilot.

We're looking for someone who is a qualified (NVQ L2 in Youth Work) and experienced (2 years) detached youth worker, confident leading excellent practice and passionate about relational detached youth work. You'll be organised, reflective and proactive, with experience of taking responsibility for detached youth work within a neighbourhood, maintaining high-quality records, building effective local partnerships and supporting colleagues through encouragement, reflection and shared learning. Most importantly, you'll share our belief that relationships are the foundation for meaningful change.

This is a 22.5- 25 hour per week, community and office-based role (M13's full-time week is 37.5 hours). Your week will include six detached youth work sessions (three afternoons and three evenings), alongside planning, monitoring, partnership working and reflective practice. Some flexibility can be offered around when office-based work is undertaken, where operationally possible.

In return, we offer a supportive, reflective and values-led working environment, regular supervision, ongoing professional development, a generous employer pension contribution, TOIL for out-of-hours working, additional Christmas gift leave and the opportunity to contribute to nationally significant research that could shape the future of detached youth work.

If you're an experienced detached youth worker, confident in leading work in ourdoor community public spaces, ready to combine outstanding frontline practice with leadership of detached youth work across neighbourhoods, learning and innovation, we'd love to hear from you.

Join Liver UK at an exciting point in our development.

Liver UK is the national charity for people affected by liver disease and liver cancer. We provide expert information and support, raise awareness, promote prevention and earlier diagnosis, influence policy and ensure the voices of people affected by liver disease are heard.

Following the coming together of the British Liver Trust and Children’s Liver Disease Foundation, we are now Liver UK: one charity supporting people of all ages and with all types of liver disease.

We are looking for an experienced, highly organised and confident Senior Administrator to play a central role in helping our organisation run effectively.

The role

This is much more than a traditional administration role.

You will be at the heart of our day-to-day operations, providing high-quality administrative and operational support across Liver UK and working with colleagues at all levels, including our Senior Management Team.

We are looking for someone who enjoys creating structure, improving processes and finding ways to make how we work more efficient and effective. You will manage a varied workload, keep important actions moving, coordinate organisational processes and help ensure agreed deadlines are met.

You will need to be confident and appropriately persistent. You’ll build good relationships with colleagues, while also being comfortable following things up, challenging constructively and having clear and confident conversations about deadlines, priorities and standards.

About you

You’ll be exceptionally organised, reliable and comfortable taking ownership rather than waiting to be directed. You’ll be able to manage competing priorities, spot what needs to happen next and see tasks through to completion.

Just as importantly, you’ll have the confidence and interpersonal skills to work effectively with colleagues at all levels, combining diplomacy and positive working relationships with appropriate challenge.

You’ll have strong written and verbal communication skills, excellent attention to detail and good IT skills. Experience of databases, CRM systems or similar organisational systems is important, while experience of Raiser’s Edge, the charity sector or a health environment would be an advantage.

Experience of supervising, coaching or supporting another member of staff, apprentice or volunteer would also be valuable.

You’ll enjoy supporting someone early in their career, providing encouragement, clear expectations and constructive feedback to help them build confidence, develop their skills and succeed in their role.

Why Liver UK?

Liver disease and liver cancer are among the UK’s fastest-growing and most under-recognised health challenges. They affect people of all ages, and the need for earlier diagnosis, better treatment, prevention and support has never been greater.

This is an opportunity to join a committed national charity at an important point in its development and to take on a role where strong organisation behind the scenes has a real impact on what the wider charity can achieve.

Please apply through CharityJob with your CV and a covering letter explaining why you are interested in the role and how your experience meets the requirements set out in the Job & Person Specification.

We will review applications and interview suitable candidates as they are received, so we may close the vacancy early. We therefore encourage you to apply as soon as possible.

About St. Michael’s Hospice

St. Michael’s Hospice (North Hampshire) is a registered charity and provides support to people diagnosed with a life-limiting illness. It is a Hospice for adults providing invaluable palliative and end-of-life care services in North Hampshire, offering comfort, support, and dignity to those facing life's most challenging moments.

As a charity, we depend on the kindness and support of our local community to continue offering our services free of charge. It may come as a surprise, but only 22% of our funding comes from the government. End-of-life care is an essential service, not a luxury, yet it is not funded like other care services. To keep the Hospice’s services running, we need raise an additional £15,000 every day.

Our benefits

We offer a competitive salary with attractive benefits, including, free parking, life assurance, 28 days annual leave plus bank holidays, and an extensive health and wellbeing plan and company pension.
