Hall, United Kingdom Changing Lives Full time

**About us**

Changing Lives is a nationwide charity helping people facing the most challenging of circumstances to make positive change - for good. We believe that everyone deserves a safe home, a rewarding job and a life free from addiction or abuse. We know that given the right support, anyone can change their life for the better.

Our services across the country help thousands of people each year who are experiencing a wide range of complicated challenges, including homelessness, drug and alcohol addiction, unemployment, involvement with the criminal justice system, sexual exploitation and domestic abuse. By focusing on their strengths, potential and opportunities, we support the people we work with to overcome their problems and live safe, successful, independent lives.

Our charity is powered by over 600 passionate colleagues who bring a diverse and inclusive environment for our colleagues to grow. We are proud to say that many have actual lived experience of the challenges faced by those we support. We are looking for committed and compassionate professionals to join our team, who share our enthusiasm for changing lives.

**About the Service - Women and Children's Services**

We understand that women and girls have experiences which are different to men and can experience vulnerabilities that are specific to their gender. Childhood abuse and domestic abuse are common features in the lives of the women we support which impact on their health and wellbeing. Underpinning all our services is an in-depth understanding of trauma and a focus on recovery, resilience and community integration.

**About the Job**

We are looking to expand our team of Specialist Custody workers based within HMP Foston hall to undertake work around, finance, benefit, and debt and Family pathways. These referral pathways are designed to support women being released from custody to the West Midlands area. We are seeking dynamic, personable, tenacious, highly motivated, and empathic individuals to do these roles, who can manage their own workloads but who also value being part of a multi-disciplinary team, within a custody setting on a full-time basis. Custody specialists will also assist in the coordination of pre-release social inclusion engagement work, working closely with Changing Lives to support women in making a successful transition into the community, and to comply with their Licence requirements.
