Pause North Somerset Practitioner

Are you an ambitious, creative and influential practitioner who is passionate about reducing the number of children being removed into care by supporting women to bring about change in their lives?

One25 is a Bristol-based charity supporting women to move from crisis and trauma towards independence in the community. One25 hosts Pause practices in Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire.

Pause is a national independent organisation seeking to prevent the damaging consequences of thousands more children being taken into care each year by working with women who have experienced - or are at risk of - repeated pregnancies that result in children needing to be removed from their care.

The programme gives women the chance to pause and take control over their lives, breaking a destructive cycle that causes both them and their children deep trauma, as well as reducing huge costs to society and the taxpayer.

You will be responsible for implementing a range of interventions and support measures as part of an integrated package of health, therapeutic and social support.

Pause is specifically designed to address the complex needs of women, through intensive support, to enable change in their lives, and ultimately reduce the numbers of children being removed into care.

This role is funded until 31st August 2023, with possibility of extended funding.


Benefits:

Generous leave (33 days including bank holidays) plus up to 13 additional days' time off in lieu; flexible working hours; and great job satisfaction.


Hours: 37.5 hours a week over 5 days (including occasional evening and weekend commitments)


Salary:
£30,786 per year
