Working for the leading mental health charity in Croydon - Mind in Croydon, this role will be working in our Recovery Space (Crisis Café) for Croydon Clinical Commissioning Group.

This service is an opportunity to make a real difference, and to give clients the support they need at the time they most need it.

The aim of the service is to divert people, who would be better supported elsewhere, away from Accident and Emergency (A&E) and other crisis services in Croydon.

The Recovery Space will operate in the evenings with people triaged by the Emergency Department of Croydon University Hospital or from the Crisis Assessment Team (CAT).

Mind in Croydon will operate the Recovery Space during the hours of 6.00pm pm, 7days a week on a rota, 365 days of the year (work hours will be pm).

We are looking for two people who have solid experience in the mental health field as well as the ability to work well within a team, have clear professional boundaries and able to input into the development and growth of the service.
