Auchinleck Community Development Initiative is a company limited by guarantee and was formed in 2005 to assist in the regeneration of the physical, economic, social and cultural infrastructure of the community of Auchinleck in particular but also the surrounding area.
Over the years we have developed & provided a range of activities and projects including the Knowe Garden Centre and other floral and fauna displays, musical entertainment, employability advice and information, addiction recovery services, community cinema and various children and young people's activities and youth clubs. The organisation is based in the local Boswell Community Centre where most of our activities and services take place.
The work of ACDI is guided by our 5-year Development plan and specific Action Plans which are currently being reviewed to take account of our new role as managers of the Boswell Centre. The Community Development Worker will play a key role in the review and implementation of these plans which will have a strong emphasis on capacity building within our existing groups and those developed in the future.
THE ROLE
As a community development worker working with the Auchinleck Community Development Initiative, you'll work with the organisation's existing projects, individuals, families, the wider community and partners, supporting them to:
build trusting and supportive relationships with you and the wider team
identify their assets, needs, opportunities, rights and responsibilities
co-produce what they want to achieve and take appropriate action
co-design activities and services to generate aspiration and confidence
achieve a status of independence and self-government.
You'll do this by acting as a link between the Organisation, the local community and a range of other local authority and voluntary sector providers to ensure that the Boswell Centre is a well-used resource and a focal point within the community.
Your role will frequently involve addressing inequality and the projects you work on will be in communities perceived to be culturally, economically or geographically disadvantaged.
