Stroke Association. Rebuilding lives after stroke.
When stroke strikes, part of your brain shuts down. And so does a part of you. That’s because a stroke happens in the brain, the control centre for who we are and what we can do.

We provide specialist support, fund critical research and campaign to make sure people affected by stroke get the very best care and support to rebuild their lives.

We strongly encourage people from all backgrounds to apply. And we’re particularly looking to increase the number of applications from those with lived experience of stroke and those from under-represented communities.
Every five minutes, stroke destroys lives. Help us rebuild them and join our team.

DFN Project SEARCH is the largest transition to work programme for people with learning disabilities and autism in the world! We are a community that gives voice to a social injustice – did you know that only 5.1% of people a learning disability and or autism, known to adult services, are in work in the UK? Yet 70% of those on our programme secure paid work, at above the minimum wage and an incredible 60% are full time roles.
We are really proud to be a social movement for change that makes clear economic sense, is the right thing to do and enables people to be the best that they can be.
We are evidence based, high aiming and everything we do is based on research. We are committed to continuous improvement and are pace setters in this area. Our programme is based on strong partnerships and our role is to provide the model, tools, training, and quality assurance to enable each participant to flourish.

outcomes. This relates particularly to sites achieving less than 60% employment outcomes.
Our model will mean that our regional Programme Specialists will form new partnerships and

sites will then be passed to our Programme Impact Co-ordinator team where you will then be
specifically required to nurture these strong partnerships and continue to train and support
colleagues within your area. You may also be required to support colleagues promoting DFN
Project SEARCH in other areas and contribute to the development of relevant new focussed
materials.
Key Responsibilities:
- Promote and train teams in the use of the Annual Delivery Framework, to evidence progress and identify further training / support needs.

- Support teams with bespoke training and guidance as needed, which may include:
- Marketing and communications.
- Programme delivery / structure.
- Recruitment and selection process to identify suitable candidates.
- Roles and responsibilities of the onsite team and wider partnership.
- Guidance on running effective operational and steering group meetings.
- Employer engagement and job development activities using current labour market intelligence.

- Facilitate teams connecting with other sites to problem solve and share best practise.

About Soundabout:
Soundabout is a charity that uses music to empower and unlock the potential of people with profound and multiple learning disabilities. The charity leads the provision of training and delivery of music-centred approaches to working with people with severe, or profound and multiple learning difficulties. We work across the UK in a variety of settings such as special schools, early years’ environments and care services.
At Soundabout, we believe that everybody deserves to have a voice. Rather than focusing on what people can’t do, we want to emphasize what they can do. We believe that people with severe and profound learning difficulties including autism should have a life full of expression, passion, and enjoyment. To enable this to happen we aim to educate, support, and empower through both empowering training and supporting those in our community. That’s why we use music to enable people with learning difficulties to express themselves, connect with others, and feel the warmth of music.
We have a small core office team and a growing body of freelance practitioners who are the creative, delivery force of our work.
Diversity and equal opportunities
Soundabout is an equal opportunity and Living Wage employer. We are committed to attracting, recruiting and retaining diverse candidates, as it’s important that our team reflect the communities we serve at every level within the charity. We especially welcome applications from people from under-represented groups and are committed to making adjustments that would support you in applying for or carrying out the role. We are currently under-represented by disabled and neurodivergent people, people from under-represented minorities, and from the LGBTQ community.
The Role
The role of the Family Support Co-ordinator is to build the knowledge, skills and confidence of families with profoundly disabled children to interact musically with their child to benefit their development, personal and social interactions and build family resilience, enhancing wellbeing and reducing isolation for parents/carers. A key part of the role will be to measure the longitudinal progress and development of children and young people with profound and multiple learning disabilities supported by Soundabout, to help the charity develop and improve our practice to ensure the best outcomes.
The role is also the first point of contact for families when enquiring about Soundabout, sharing ideas for opportunities to engage with our services and offering additional support to our families as and when needed, trouble-shooting any access or other issues or concerns.
The post holder must be willing to lead on our Safeguarding agenda (either through pre-existing experience or by attending appropriate training).
The Candidate:
You will be a warm, flexible, and energetic team player with significant experience of working with families of profoundly disabled children and a commitment to reducing isolation for families and building support networks and connections. You may have an understanding of how music and sound can be used as a developmental tool and to build family cohesion and resilience. You are motivated by the opportunity to improve the lives of people with severe and profound learning disabilities and their families.
Key responsibilities:
-
To be the primary point of support for all families with children who have profound and severe learning difficulties and are part of Soundabout’s community; whether attending music-making sessions, participating in 1:1 support sessions with our music practitioners or as part of Soundabout’s Inclusive Choir and associated groups.
-
To induct new families into the organisation, exploring with them the opportunities available and best suited to each child and family’s needs. Introduce families to our evaluative processes to be undertaken by Soundabout practitioners and track progress, providing bi-annual updates to families via progress reports. Signpost families to other opportunities and forms of support as appropriate.
-
To maintain regular contact with the families through ‘light touch’ support via telephone, email and zoom, as and when appropriate, and undertake annual re-assessments.
-
