Could you give one hour a month to hold a safe, reflective space for a team of bereavement support volunteers? We are looking for a qualified therapist to facilitate a monthly online group; a place for our volunteers to process, decompress and feel supported.
The New Normal is a charity that runs free peer support groups for people navigating bereavement, facilitated by a dedicated team of volunteers across the UK.
Our volunteers dedicate their time and energy to supporting others through emotionally challenging times, and we want to make sure they feel equally held and supported in that work. We are looking for a qualified therapist to facilitate a monthly online group session for our volunteers: a safe, reflective space where they can process what comes up, let off steam, and when required be offered reflective feedback.
This is a facilitation role rather than a clinical one. You would be holding the space, normalising emotions, and offering a warm, containing presence, not providing individual therapy or carrying clinical responsibility for group members.
What we are looking for:
— A qualified or experienced therapist, ideally with a person-centred or integrative background
— Experience of group work or group facilitation (desirable but not essential)
— An affinity with bereavement, peer support, or community-based work
— Warmth, groundedness, and the ability to hold a group with confidence
What we can offer:
— Access to free safeguarding, peer support and Sucide First Aid (lite) training worth £500 (optional)
— A warm, motivated and reflective group of volunteers who care deeply about what they do
— Full support from The New Normal team
— The opportunity to contribute to a charity doing vital work in the bereavement space
This is a voluntary, unpaid role. We are happy to discuss the scope of the role in detail and support you in checking any requirements with your professional body or insurer before you commit.
We believe that no one should have to deal with grief or mental health alone: we combat isolation through creating connection.

About Flourish
Many people looking for therapy across the UK are stuck in a gap. They aren't in a high enough crisis for the NHS, but they can't afford the high price tag for private care.
Flourish was founded to change that. While we support people across the country, our home is in Brighton. We are a group of expert therapists who believe that quality care should be available to everyone. We use a sliding scale where those who can afford a bit more help us provide sessions for those who can’t.
We are a small, dedicated team of qualified counsellors. As we grow to a community of therapists, we’re looking for experienced local people to join us as advisors and help us keep the organisation steady and safe.
The focus of this role
Because we work with people in distress, we never want our therapists to feel they are carrying that responsibility alone. You’ll be the person helping us make sure our clinical work is as safe as it can be. You will support our Clinical Lead by helping look at difficult cases and making sure our safety rules are practical and effective.
How you’ll help
Reviewing Safety: Every few months, we’ll meet in Brighton to look over our incident log and see if there are patterns we can learn from.
Consulting on Cases: If we have a particularly difficult safeguarding situation, we’ll reach out to get your perspective on the best way forward.
Keeping us Current: You'll help us make sure our safety plans stay up to date with the best ways to look after people in a digital setting.
Who you are
You’re a qualified therapist (BACP, UKCP, or similar) with significant experience in safeguarding and clinical management.
You live or work in the Brighton area and can meet with us in person.
You have a calm, expert approach that helps others feel supported during high-pressure situations.
The Time: An in-person meeting in Brighton every three months, plus an occasional email or call if a situation needs a quick second opinion.
