Leicester, United Kingdom Leicestershire Cares Full time

**Back ground and brief description of project.**

Leicestershire Cares is an award winning, creative and results-orientated charity that works across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland. We work with local businesses, community, schools and local government to ensure that no one is left behind and all children and young people are supported to reach their potential.

**Our vision**

An inclusive and safe Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland where nobody is left behind, and all children and young people are supported to reach their full potential.

**Our mission.**

We broker partnerships and create opportunities across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland that enable the business sector to understand community needs, contribute to the growth of inclusive, safe communities and to support and inspire children and young people in their transition to the workplace.

**Our values**

**We believe in partnership**

We broker partnerships between business, local government, schools and community groups so they can share skills and knowledge to deliver lasting positive change for disadvantaged groups and individuals.

**We believe in the power of employee volunteering**

We believe that employee volunteering enables volunteers, community groups and individuals to develop skills and understanding and is a highly effective way of strengthening communities and increasing employee engagement.

**We focus on impact**

We focus on impact and ensuring the work we carry out delivers meaningful and lasting positive change.

**We are inspiring**

We inspire people and organisations to identify their aspirations and to reach their full potential by thinking creatively and testing innovative approaches.

**We are Inclusive**

We seek to learn from the rich cultural diversity of Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland and to build cohesion across community groups and to remove barriers to people’s participation.

**We are committed to learning and development**

We continually review the community need and are agile enough to adapt and improve the services we offer to work in a mutually beneficial way with relevant organisations.

**Our Community Development work**
- “When a flower does not bloom you fix its environment, not the flower”_

This has led to us winning from the TNLCF to develop and deliver our “Power to Change” model. The outcomes for this work are:

- _Support disadvantaged young people individually and collectively to develop key soft and hard skills, networks and connections that will enable them to live happy, rewarding and fulfilling lives_
- _Business community develop their understanding of the issues faced by these YP and how they can support them_
- _Community groups are supported by staff, young people and business volunteers to develop their capacity so they are better able to understand and support young people._
- _Young people develop the skills, knowledge and confidence to share awareness of their situation and ideas for improving services and support with both local and national decision makers_.

The CD team will initially consist of the HoP who will manage, two fulltime staff and a 0.8 Programme Support Officer. The team will be expected to work closely with our Children and Young People team and to utilise the skills, knowledge and resources of our business, community and public sector partners. The CYP team tend to work with young people across the city and county who come under the following headings, Care experience, NEET and young offenders. This initiative will have a stronger focus on neighbourhood youth work.

You will be joining the team at a time when we have developed a range of relationships in the Belgrave area of Leicester city and we envisage the postholder developing and supporting a range of youth projects in this area. In addition, you will support a new youth club run by our partner Wesley Hall and seek to develop initiatives in the county. As with all our staff, we are looking for the post holder to be creative and able to spot and respond creatively to opportunities as they arise.
- **Main Responsibilities**:_

You will develop partnerships between community groups, local business and public sector that deliver youth provision. You will switch between leading some of this work in a “hands on way”, to developing the capacity of community groups so they can run such provision. Across all your work the voice and lived experience of young people should help shape and drive the agenda. As with all our work you will proactively seek to identify ways the business sector can add value to this work.

**Power to Change delivery.**

Proactively build understanding of connections and relationships with a diverse range of community groups in neighbourhoods across LLR who either support or wish to support young people.
