Southend City Council has fantastic opportunities in their Prevention and Recovery Service, who are currently expanding their service and looking for more Social Workers to join their teams on a full-time permanent basis.There has never been a better time to join our teams and participate in growing our service to be innovative, creative and providing high quality support to people when they need it most. The main aim of the teams is to use a strength-based approach to support people returning home after hospital and enable people to live safely in the community, maximising their abilities to care for themselves and to support carers to continue in their caring role as long as they are able to. The teams work creatively with people and their carers to empower them and identify individual and community-based assets.

Connected Southend is Southend’s whole service approach to community practice, personalised enablement, new models of commissioning and social care support across the city. In essence, it is our new approach to providing the very best information, advice, prevention, support and social care. Alongside this, Connected Southend has the heart of the city embedded within, through our use and support of voluntary and community groups, our arts, culture, leisure and our heritage.Living in Southend is so much more than local identity; it is how we relate to everything around us; our history as much as our future, and our desire to remain within the communities we call home with the people that are important to us.Bringing together practitioners, commissioners and providers, as well as our wider culture, arts and leisure services, we aim to change the way we support and enable people to live the lives they choose to live.
Connected Southend is underpinned by the core concepts of the Care Act, ensuring community opportunities, citizenship and personalised outcomes and is now core to Southend’s Social Services plans for the future. The model itself sets out standards, principles and approaches for staff delivering services. It places more emphasis on prevention and enablement, and supports people to live the life they want.
