The Adult Mental Health Team (AMHT) in Banbury are advertising for a Community Support Time and Recovery (STR) Worker to contribute to caring for and supporting adults with severe mental illness within the Banbury and surrounding villages.
The North & West Oxon AMHT serves a diverse and multicultural population and support adults of working age who are experiencing severe and enduring mental illnesses requiring specialist care and treatment.
