About the role:
Recovery is about more than addressing immediate needs. It is also about having somewhere to belong, opportunities to build confidence and skills, meaningful connections with other people, and the chance to take part in the community around you. As our Recovery and Opportunities Co-ordinator, you’ll help make those opportunities a reality for people experiencing homelessness and multiple disadvantage in our St John's Mansions service.
You’ll develop and coordinate our Recovery and Opportunities programme, creating activities and opportunities that reflect what clients actually want from their services and communities. You’ll work alongside clients, colleagues, volunteers and peer supporters to co-produce activities, build participation and make sure people are supported to get involved in ways that feel meaningful to them. You’ll also help equip others with the confidence, training and resources they need to deliver opportunities effectively.
A big part of the role happens beyond our services. You’ll build strong relationships with community organisations, local residents, statutory and voluntary-sector partners and other opportunities across Islington, opening doors for clients to access volunteering, education, cultural activities and wider community life. You’ll represent Single Homeless Project (SHP) at local forums and events, champion social value across our services and look for creative ways we can contribute positively to the communities our clients are part of.
You’ll also help us understand what is making a difference, monitoring participation and outcomes and using what we learn to strengthen the programme over time. It’s a role with plenty of scope for creativity and initiative, where you can turn relationships, ideas and client feedback into opportunities that reduce isolation, strengthen belonging and help people move forward with greater confidence, independence and purpose.
About you:
- You have experience engaging and motivating people experiencing multiple disadvantage, including people who may have previously found it difficult to engage with services or opportunities.
- You can develop, coordinate and facilitate engaging groups, activities or programmes, and understand how to encourage meaningful participation from different people.
- You’re confident building relationships with community organisations, residents, colleagues and external partners, and can turn those relationships into practical opportunities for clients.
- You understand the importance of social value and social impact and can think creatively about how services can contribute positively to their local communities.
- You’re an engaging communicator who can work collaboratively across different teams, represent a service externally and bring people together around a shared goal.

You’ll work alongside colleagues with lived experience, in a space that’s trans-inclusive, disability-friendly, and actively striving to be anti-oppressive and equitable.
We’re not perfect, but we’re real. We listen. We learn. And we push forward, together. Because this isn’t just a job. It’s a chance to lead with empathy, spark change, and help build a London where no one is left behind.

About WSUP
Woolwich Service Users Project is a charity based in central Woolwich, supporting people experiencing homelessness, poverty, poor mental health, addiction, social isolation and multiple disadvantage. WSUP provides a welcoming, non-judgemental, open-access community space where guests can access practical support, health and wellbeing services, specialist advice, and trusted relationships.
Our work is rooted in lived experience, dignity and relational support. We meet people where they are, offering both immediate relief and pathways into longer-term stability, recovery and community connection. WSUP works closely with local and national partners across health, housing, recovery, advice and community wellbeing to reduce health inequalities and improve outcomes for people who often face barriers to mainstream services.
Purpose of the Role
The Health Coordinator will lead and develop WSUP’s health coordination offer, ensuring that guests can access timely, appropriate and compassionate support around physical health, mental health, addiction, sexual health, primary care, housing-related health needs and wider wellbeing.
The postholder will provide structured triage, one-to-one support, casework, referrals and follow-up for guests experiencing complex needs. A key part of the role will be helping people who are not currently engaged with statutory or mainstream services to reconnect with healthcare, housing, welfare and specialist support.
The Health Coordinator will also play a key role in developing and overseeing WSUP’s women’s service provision, including Women’s Wednesday. This will include coordinating health and wellbeing support, strengthening referral pathways for women, supporting peer-led activity, promoting safety and inclusion, and ensuring the service responds to the needs of women experiencing homelessness, domestic abuse, poor mental health, addiction, temporary accommodation, poverty, social isolation or resettlement barriers.
The postholder will also support female residents linked to women’s accommodation and community-based support pathways in Greenwich, helping them access WSUP’s trusted community hub, women-only provision, health coordination, practical support, peer connection and specialist referrals at a pace that feels safe and appropriate.

Role Context

As the Recovery in Community Worker (Referral and Assessment) you will be supporting people in who have been referred into Greater Manchester Mental Health (GMMH) services but may not meet the threshold for secondary or specialist mental health services.

We share skills, experience and learning across the teams so that everyone benefits and we can make a meaningful difference.
Main Duties and Responsibilities
· Take referrals from the GMMH (Greater Manchester Mental Health) Referral and Assessment Hub and build trusting relationships with people so that they receive the support they need to recover and stay well.
· Build relationships with other key professionals to ensure individuals achieve their goals (e.g. GPs, social care, community services etc).
· Support the development of a supportive and productive referral route into and out of the service, managing exit from the service safely.
· Support the development of this new service, responding professionally to changes as we improve and evolve our working practice collaboratively.
· Provide a trauma-informed service to people: listening, offering safety, choice and empowerment to the people you support so they can effectively engage with services and make sustainable links in with their communities.
· Identify and deliver appropriate interventions.
· Identify when people need referrals to secondary services or specialist mental health services and make appropriate referrals.
· Independently travel to visit people in a range of settings across in Manchester and across Greater Manchester, adhering to lone working and risk management procedures.
· To integrate effectively with colleagues at Manchester Mind, taking a “one team approach” to deliver a seamless service, understanding the different roles in the Recovery in Community team and recognising each other's strengths.
· Maintain accurate and up-to-date case notes and records using agreed case management systems, following standard operating procedures.
· Support people to engage in our service through coproduction, engagement events and feedback forms.
· Contribute to service reporting, monitoring and evaluation as required.
· Identify additional needs that people have and highlight them to Manchester Mind with a view to sharing them with Greater Manchester Mental Health Trust and commissioners.
