Hours: 37.5
Location: Based at Christopher’s (Guildford), this role will be working across sites and in the community
About Shooting Star Children’s Hospices
We have an exciting opportunity to join our Family Support Team at Shooting Star Children’s Hospices.
Shooting Star Children’s Hospices provides specialist care and support to families who have a baby, child or young person with a life-limiting condition, or whose child has died. Rated ‘Outstanding’ by the Care Quality Commission, our teams support families across Surrey, north-west London and south-west London from diagnosis to end of life and throughout bereavement with a range of nursing, practical, emotional and medical care.
About the role
Family Support Workers (FSW) are the frontline of our care. Each FSW holds a caseload of end-of-life and bereaved families. They get to know their families, and check-in regularly with phone calls and home visits and can provide enhanced emotional support where required through more regular contact and interventions. Our FSWs tell families about the many services they can access at Shooting Star, assess their needs and make recommendations to our multi-disciplinary team. They support families of different ethnicities and families living in poverty, helping our service be as accessible as possible.
Our FSWs work closely with our Therapists, Counsellors, Social Workers, Transition Team and our Care Events Team. Weekly MDT meetings bring the team together to think of ways to help families in crisis. The work is varied and creative, taking place at the hospices, in family homes and hospitals, allowing the support to be where the families need it. Our Family Support Workers are hugely appreciated by the families we support.
The ambition of our strategy is to ensure every family affected by a life-limiting condition, or the sudden death of a child, has access to the specialist care that they need. Day to day duties are:
· Being the on-site duty FSW, welcoming families on site, monitoring email inboxes and answering the Family Support Line.
· Helping with support groups and family events
· Providing on the spot emotional support, sometimes in a crisis where a calm and supportive response is required.
· Visiting newly bereaved families in their homes.
· Supporting families staying at our Christopher’s hospice (booked stays and end of life).
· Attending various locations over the course of a week: hospice, hospital, family homes.
· Building connections with families from different backgrounds, delivering culturally sensitive care.
· Helping safeguard families at risk of harm.
· Acting as an ambassador for Shooting Star’s Specialist Bereavement Service, supporting other care team members with their learning and delivery of the bereavement pathway, and continually seeking ways to improve what we offer families.
The post holder will need to have a UK driving license.
The hours are predominantly worked 9am to 5pm, Monday to Friday.

Invitation To Tender: Provision Of Accountancy Services
The FFLM invites suitably qualified and experienced accountancy firms to submit tenders for the provision of professional accountancy services.
About us
The Faculty of Forensic and Legal Medicine (FFLM) was founded in 2005 and is an
established international membership organisation and charity committed to the
development and maintenance of the highest possible standards in forensic and legal
medicine.
The specialty covers professionals working in the following disciplines: forensic medical
practitioners (forensic physicians, forensic pathologists, forensic psychiatrists, forensic
odontologists); medico-legal and dentolegal advisers; clinicians working in secure and
detained settings and medically and legally qualified coroners.
Introduction
The FFLM is tendering for accountancy services. We are a registered Charity (1119599).
FFLM prepares its accounts in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 and Accounting
and Reporting by Charities Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities

the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).
Bidders must demonstrate experience in preparing and advising on accounts compliant
with this framework.
Our financial year runs from 1 January to 31 December. Our annual turnover is between
£800,000 and £1.1M and an overview of our finances is available in our 2024 financial
report.
We employ a Finance and Membership Manager and a Finance Administrator to manage
our day-to-day income and expenditure. We are tendering for an accountant to provide
support to our Finance Team and help us to meet our legal obligations regarding financial
matters.
As our turnover passed £1M, we are now subject to annual independent audit, which is
currently carried out by MHA. We will require an accountant to support the FFLM in
preparing accounts and other documents for this purpose.
We are a small organisation, with 4.7 FTE staff members and support an organisation
funded by the Home office, the Institute for Addressing Strangulation (IFAS) which has 3.9
FTE staff.
IFAS is a Home Office funded initiative which leads national work on the recognition,
response, and prevention of non-fatal strangulation and suffocation. It functions as an
internal programme of the FFLM, operating under its governance and financial
management structures. All accounting, reporting, and compliance responsibilities for IFAS
are handled within the broader framework of the FFLM.
Our staff work entirely remotely, and we do not maintain any office space. Due to our size,
we need our accountant to provide proactive advice and support, be readily available and
provide excellent customer service.

We look forward to receiving your submission.
