    Job title: Lived Experience Facilitator - Service User Network (SUN)
    Post no: 598
    Working base: Mind BLMK - Luton Wellbeing Centre
    Area covered: Bedfordshire and Luton (SUN offers a combination of online and face to face groups).
    Hours: 21 hours per week. Tuesdays 9.30am – 5.00pm (7 hours) Remaining 14 hours to be negotiated depending on service need (within the hours Monday – Friday, 9.30am – 5.00pm)
    Contract: Permanent
    Salary: £25,147.00 per annum FTE (£14,272.62 per annum Actual)

    About the Service User Network (SUN)

    The SUN is an open access model of community-based facilitated group peer support for people experiencing complex emotional needs associated with complex trauma and/or a diagnosis of 'personality disorder'. The SUN aims to help people develop effective ways of coping, reduce emergencies and improve access to appropriate services.

    Those accessing the SUN may or may not have a formal diagnosis of personality disorder. Group members will have experienced longstanding emotional difficulties, isolation and may demonstrate patterns of behaviour that may not be helpful in the longer term.

    About the Role

    Fundamental to creating empowerment and engagement in the SUN Project is the therapeutic community principle, that the effectiveness of the service depends upon engaging group members in the task of running, delivery, development and evaluation of the service. The utilisation of SUN members' own resources and expertise is integral to the SUN model of peer support.

    SUN Facilitators will have their own lived experience of complex emotional needs associated with a diagnosis of 'personality disorder' and will be able to demonstrate their recovery journey. They will work closely with mental health practitioners from ELFT to deliver regular Service User Network (SUN) groups in different community-based locations in Bedford, Central Bedfordshire or Luton. Full training in the SUN model, and weekly supervision by a Psychotherapist / Psychologist, will be provided for all team members.

    Facilitators will work to develop and support the therapeutic community principle of the SUN model and the effectiveness of the service through engaging group members in the task of running, delivery, development, and evaluation of the service. The utilisation of SUN members' own resources and expertise is integral to the model of peer support upon which the SUN groups are based.

    SUN facilitators will have regular supervision and support in this role along with appropriate training.

    • 25 days (pro rata) Annual Leave plus Bank Holidays (pro rata)
    • Auto-enrolment NEST pension scheme (employer contributes 3%, employee contributes 5%)
    • Optional Health Plan
