Hestia's Mental Health Integrated Voluntary and Community Sector (VCS) Team work within the NHS' Community Mental Health Team (CMHT). We help people to connect with what is meaningful to them and provide therapeutic, trauma-informed support.

Assessment and management of client care needs through Dialog +, crisis plans, monitoring of SU's progress and reports in care reviews with the MDT team
Outreach work within the local community, networking with grassroots and statutory services and connecting clients to local resources
Supporting SU's in discharge planning from CMHT and building sustainable networks in the community
Facilitate and co-deliver psychoeducation and other wellbeing activities/peer groups where possible

We offer a supportive, inclusive and resolution driven work environment where your contributions are recognised and valued. As a member of our team, you will have the chance to grow both personally and professionally while making a lasting impact on the lives of those we serve.
We are looking for candidates who bring a combination of passion, expertise, and dedication to the table. To excel in this role, you should possess:
Understanding of the issues and concerns of mental health service users
Understanding and practical knowledge of recovery, and coproduction
Experience of working autonomously, and in a team or a group environment
Experience of liaising with other agencies and partners
Awareness of treatment outcomes, recovery tools, care planning, assessment of risk
