Young People's Wellbeing Practitioner
Job Description
Platfform4YP Swansea Bay gives young people a chance to share their experiences of mental health with others who may be facing similar challenges, and to learn new strategies to promote their wellbeing. It's important for young people to know that whatever they're facing, they're not alone or isolated. We don't try to 'fix' people. We listen and work with them to find new ways and strategies that help to promote wellbeing. We work with 13 - 16 year olds in Swansea, Neath and Port Talbot, with a combination of one-to-one support, peer support groups and the State of Mind programme.
No one needs a diagnosis to access our projects - we work with anyone who is struggling. Anyone taking part will also have the opportunity to train to become a Volunteer Peer Mentor. Mentors work with us to shape the project's future, ensuring that it's exactly what young people want and need.
Access to your own vehicle, and Class One Business insurance is a mandatory requirement for the role.
We work with people experiencing challenges with their mental health, and with communities who want to create a greater sense of wellbeing in the places that they live. Through our projects, we work with thousands of people each year.
We believe that long-lasting wellbeing comes about by understanding how lives can be shaped by traumatic experiences, identifying people's strengths and focussing on healing. We know we can't 'fix' people, but we can walk alongside people and help where we can on their journey.
We try hard to make Platfform a great place to work, we live our values and mission in everything that we do.
