This is a varied role and no two days are the same. Day to day you will be involved in: Adding referrals to the Trust's system, typing letters, collating feedback from workshops and training, arranging meetings with schools and colleges, formatting reports and presentations, taking notes, ordering resources for the team, and much more. Please see the attached job description for more details.

From education and prevention, to crisis and specialist care -our talented and compassionate teams work in partnership with our patients, communities and partners to help the people of our region feel safe, understood, believed in and cared for.
We nurture the recovery journey of anyone in need of our help. In Our Trust, everyone has a say in how they are supported and treated because we listen to every person in our care until they feel understood. Our patients, their families and carers work together with us towards better mental health.
We're committed to new thinking that improves the wellbeing of our region. We connect with our communities and partners to get mental health care right, in areas that really need it.
