Aberdare, United Kingdom Platfform Full time

Platfform4YP Cwm Taf Morgannwg is a new project working in partnership with the CAMHS team based in Tonteg Hospital to deliver community based support to young people post discharge from a crisis presentation to CAMHS.

After a referral from the CAMHS team, you will then build a relationship with the young person to deliver relational, trauma-informed support, grounded in attachment theory and the power of human connection for healing. We use a compassionate, nurturing approach that helps children and young people make sense of their experiences, understand where they are now and where they would like to be in future. We recognise each young person’s circumstance is unique to them, and our intervention is based around normalising experiences of distress as part of what has happened to them and the challenges they may be facing in life. We know young people experience distress in many forms and may need support to understand their reactions and validation for their feelings and struggles.

We work with people experiencing challenges with their mental health, and with communities who want to create a greater sense of wellbeing in the places that they live. Through our projects, we work with thousands of people each year.

We believe that long-lasting wellbeing comes about by understanding how lives can be shaped by traumatic experiences, identifying people’s strengths and focussing on healing. We know we can’t ‘fix’ people, but we can walk alongside people and help where we can on their journey.

We try hard to make Platfform a great place to work, we live our values and mission in everything that we do.
