Swansea, United Kingdom Swansea Community Farm Full time

Swansea Community Farm is looking for a Wellbeing Officer to run our Farming for Wellbeing project.

Farming for Wellbeing is a community-led wellbeing-focussed outdoor volunteering programme which offers participants wellbeing and learning opportunities, along with socialising and building a community. Volunteers attend two days a week and work in all areas of the Farm, gaining experience and qualifications, and progressing to peer mentor positions. Volunteers self-refer, and come to us via health professionals, the job centre and other routes. Farm volunteering makes a real difference to people's lives, and your work will contribute to that.

This role involves:

Management of volunteer opportunities at the Farm, including the delivery and development of the Regional Integration Fund Farming for Wellbeing project. This involves recruitment, support and management of new volunteers and existing volunteers and support staff. Volunteers are the focus of the Farm, and you will be expected to support and develop them and offer personalised reviews to help them meet their goals. You will promote the project to increase volunteer numbers and support the development of existing and new volunteers as peer mentors. You will carry out monitoring and evaluation, liaising with other staff, trustees and stakeholders and developing the programme in a beneficiary-led manner. You will write funding reports and work on funding applications for this and other Farm projects, together with our fundraising team.

Volunteer days will see you out on site, working with volunteers in the animal house and around the Farm, supporting them to learn new practical skills and manage the farm site in a nature-friendly way. You will be in charge of the staff group for the day, including day planning, briefing and debriefing. Office days will involve volunteer programme development, recruitment, line management, monitoring and reporting on the project and organising training and materials for the programme. You will work on developing partnerships to ensure we are reaching as many adults at risk who could benefit from the programme as possible. We would expect you to work with other staff on writing funding bids.

An ideal candidate will have a passion for improving people's wellbeing through outdoor work (in all weathers). They will be non-judgmental, experienced at working with groups, and able to communicate effectively with a wide range of people. They will have confidence around livestock and a willingness to learn how to care for them. They will enjoy supporting people to increase their confidence and wellbeing. They will be flexible and able to fit into a small, dynamic team, keen to take on responsibility and learn new things, undergoing any necessary training.
