Wellbeing Enterprises (WE) has received funding from the Future Innovation Fund to develop a Social Prescribing Training Academy for the Liverpool City Region (LCR). The Academy’s aim is to bolster the capacity and develop the skills and competencies of the social prescribing workforce in the LCR. It will also provide pathways to volunteering, work experience and employment for local people.

Social prescribing links patients to non-medical sources of support in the community as a way of responding to the wider biopsychosocial needs of patients. This approach is typically facilitated with the support of a Social Prescribing Link Worker / Wellbeing Officer.

As the Academy Tutor, you will play a pivotal role operationalising the Academy, delivering interactive teaching and ongoing learner support. This is an excellent opportunity for an organised and creative individual who is looking to play a key role developing this innovation from a concept to a reality working with the Project Lead. We are looking for candidates who place emphasis on quality of provision, preparation, and learner wellbeing.
