Do you want to be a driving force, championing access to mental health and wellbeing support for minority and disadvantaged groups in Doncaster?

We are seeking two dedicated and passionate Outreach Workers to join our Settle Project team!

You will be a visible presence in our city, representing our Settle service at community events in each locality, providing a first point of contact and actively seeking opportunities to engage and support without judgement, all migrants in Doncaster, regardless of their status or the circumstances that led to their arrival in our city.

Confident, approachable and empathetic, our new Outreach workers will engage people where they are and also welcome those who have been referred into the service from other support organisations or referrers.

You will support the Settle Co-ordinator to connect those you meet in the community, to our Settle project and other Doncaster Mind services, and help the service coordinator to foster a brave space where people from ethnic minority backgrounds, can come together to not only practice their English, but also learn tools and strategies to support their wellbeing and emotional health.

As well as being pivotal to the success of our Settle project in the community, the Outreach workers will assist the project coordinator in supporting the delivery of our equality, diversity and inclusion plan, and in the development of our ongoing response to health inequalities across all communities in Doncaster.

The ability to engage, support and work with people who may struggle with the English language along with the confidence to positively represent our Settle project in the community, will be essential to the successful fulfilment of this role. Speaking an additional language/s would be considered a bonus!
