**About Bath Mind**

Bath Mind was established in 1998 by a group of local people with lived experience of mental ill health who wanted to provide information and activities for people in the community. Since then we have worked hard to develop what we do in response to local needs.

Many of our current staff have lived experience of facing mental health challenges; we have a greater understanding of the community that we support.

We are in contact with over 3,400 people annually to improve, prevent and maintain mental health and wellbeing.

While we are affiliated to national Mind, we receive no direct funding from them. We are a self - sustaining, independent locally run charity.

**About Bath Mind’s Housing Service**

Bath Mind is looking for an empathetic and self-motivated Housing Relief Support Worker to join our small friendly team and support clients with their mental health living within Bath Mind's residential home.

Our support home is CQC registered and provides 24-hour non-nursingcare and support to eight people with long-term mental health problems aged between 18 - 65 years. We work alongside each resident to identify and work towards their life choices and goals by providing individualised and person-centred support through care planning and a key-work system. This support incorporates a wide holistic approach that looks at maximising the self-management and empowerment of each resident.

There is a mental health training package for all colleagues, including clinical supervision, for continued professional development. This is an excellent opportunity for students who would like to progress in a mental health or clinical direction as many of our previous staff have moved into Assistant Psychologist and Psychological Wellbeing Practitioner roles after gaining practical experience with us.
