**Job Introduction**:
Wood Street is a supported living service which will provide accommodation and support to people who may have dual diagnoses, a history of drug and/or alcohol use and/or forensic histories.

Passionate about people, you’ll enjoy the scope - supporting individuals to gain the skills to live independently. With an emphasis on key working, you’ll need to work flexibly to manage your own small caseload and help with the day to day running of the service.

At Turning Point, we support people across the UK with mental health issues. As a Peer Support Worker, you’ll make a real difference to peoples lives, lives as you work closely with people to help them achieve their potential. You will form part of a wider supportive team within the region and there is the opportunity for growth in the future.

The role is either full-time or part-time.

**Role Responsibility**:
The role of the Peer Support Worker is to draw on your own personal, lived experiences of your recovery journey - you will inspire hope to others who are experts by experience.

As a Peer Support Worker, you will work as part of a team to devise individually tailored support and risk management plans and ensure the smooth day to day running of the service.

Ultimately, you’ll play a vital role in helping them to gain skills and coping strategies, all while encouraging positive change and independence.

The role will require you to offer support face to face with residents in the community, individually and within group settings.

You will be able to demonstrate a good knowledge and value base in mental health and related issues. You will have excellent verbal and written communication skills with the ability to tailor the message to the audience.

You will share ideas about ways of achieving recovery goals, drawing on personal experiences and a range of coping, self-help and self-management techniques.

You will model personal responsibility, self-awareness, self-belief, self-advocacy and hopefulness.

You will be able to deliver a range of treatments and interventions in a person centred, non-judgemental manner. You will have the ability to deal effectively and calmly with challenging situations.

As a leading health and social care provider with more than 300 locations across England, we take real pride in the services we offer.

Across the varied regions, sectors and settings we operate within, our organisation is held together by a shared vision - and our people are connected by the same values.
