This role will be based within the hospital HWP team, focusing on young people with diabetes at King’s College Hospital and the Princess Royal University Hospital (PRUH) in Orpington, while contributing to wider youth health initiatives such as the Youth Empowerment & Support (YES) Programme.

Purpose of the Role

The Health & Wellbeing Practitioner will support young people living with diabetes by:

Engaging and building trust with young people attending diabetes clinics.
Providing one-to-one therapeutic support and practical guidance to address health and wellbeing needs.
Co-designing and delivering group interventions, pop-up clinics, and peer support opportunities.
Helping reduce barriers to clinic attendance, improving engagement, and contributing to better physical and psychological health outcomes.
Building the capacity of hospital staff to communicate effectively with young patients.
Supporting the recruitment, design, and delivery of the YES Programme, empowering young people to take an active role in their care.

Re-engage young people missing appointments through outreach and community-based work.
Work collaboratively with families, schools, and other professionals to ensure young people access appropriate medical and wellbeing support.

Service Delivery & Development

Attend regular diabetes clinics at King’s and PRUH, linking young people to follow-up support.
Help other HWPs with YES Programme (including recruitment, social media engagement, and post-programme activities).
Develop pathways to link young people into wider services such as sexual health, mental health, education, employment, and extracurricular activities.
Ensure accurate and confidential data recording in line with information governance best practice (including use of WHO-5 questionnaires, goal trackers, and EPIC database).
Occasionally represent The Well Centre at NHS, local authority, and voluntary sector events.

Collaboration & Capacity Building

Work closely with clinicians, safeguarding teams, and multi-agency partners to assess risk and support vulnerable young people.
Attend regular MDT meetings and support diabetes and endocrinology staff to improve communication and engagement with young patients.

Ability to work autonomously while being an effective team player.
IT skills, including database use (EPIC experience desirable; training provided).
