Vaccination

As an NHS Trust we strongly encourage and support vaccination as this remains the best way to protect yourself, your family, your colleagues and of course patients and service users when working on our healthcare settings.

As a CAMHS Lead you will help young people build a life away from crime. By working with young people involved in the Criminal Justice System you will share our ethos that everyone has the capacity to change. Working closely with young people to understand their needs and vulnerabilities, you will help explore new avenues and treatment to ensure that they succeed in life.

To be part of this forward-thinking team, and you will be supported to implement innovative new ways of working through a trauma informed ‘lens’. With the support of the Youth Justice Board (YJB) and Department for Education (DfE), Westminster Youth Justice Service has been one of the 3 YJS across the country to be given permission to trial a new alternative systemic assessment. This is a role in which you will be encouraged to explore your most ambitious ideas.

You will be part of a transformative YJS that strives to meet the changing needs of young people and families in the area. They are committed to systemic practice and are addressing the root causes of offending - such as poor educational experiences and lack of employment prospects and underlying mental health undiagnosed needs and we are shaping better outcomes for our most complex young people.

You will be part of a YJS that received praise in a 2020 SEND inspection assessing practice across social care, family services and schools. They have also been awarded the Quality Kite Mark for their SEN approach.
