Are you passionate about making a difference to the lives of young carers? We are looking for new sessional workers to join our Young Carers team. Our sessional workers play a key role in supporting the delivery of a programme of activities designed for our young carers aged 5 to 15 and the delivery of monthly peer support groups and activities for young adult carers aged 16 to 21.
Carers Hub plays a vital role in Lambeth, supporting unpaid carers across the borough with 1-1 and peer support, signposting, monthly forums, training, workshops and social activities. Our young carers team works with children from the age of 5 upwards, offering support and information to young carers and their families.
Adventure, friendship and support are super-important for young carers, so we split our work into four areas:
- We organise a mixture of exciting activities throughout the year.
- We run monthly young carers groups - a space to relax and have fun.
- We provide a listening ear and relevant help to young carers and their families.
- We run dedicated projects working with schools to support young carers with their education.
If you are passionate about delivering exciting activities and focused interventions to children and young people, we would love to hear from you.
