Our services include supported accommodation, leisure activities, learning programs, and expert guidance, all focused on equal opportunities and safeguarding. We are committed to supporting people to live fulfilling and independent lives.

The Role of the PEW is to gather feedback from current service users of forensic inpatient secure hospital services and ultimately improve conditions for the patients.

In order for the PEWs to carry out their role, we are looking for someone to provide them support.

The Support Worker will assist a Peer Engagement Worker who is employed by Barnet Mencap in collaboration with the North London Forensic Collaborative (NLFC).

We are looking for someone who is caring and compassionate, non-judgemental and organised

The post holder will need to be able to build a rapport with their client, ensure they arrive for work in a timely and safe manner, are able to record their findings and decompress after being on the ward.
the post holder would need to liaise with both staff at Barnet Mencap, the NLFC as well as the Peer Workers support team.

The Peer Engagement Worker has a learning disability and/or autism and will independently travel to Barnet Mencap’s office. The Support Worker’s role will focus on assisting with travel to and from two psychiatric forensic hospitals: Chase Farm Hospital and the John Howard Centre, ensuring a safe and comfortable journey
