"SUPPORTING MENTAL HEALTH AND WELLBEING IS A BIG PART OF WHAT WE DO. WE HELP YOUNG PEOPLE TALK ABOUT HOW THEY’RE FEELING, AND MAKE SURE THEY DON’T FEEL ALONE."

Are you passionate about supporting young people’s mental health and emotional well-being? We are seeking a dedicated Wellbeing Practitioner to join our fantastic team in Glasgow. As part of an exciting partnership with Action for Children and Scottish Friendly, your role will play a crucial part in delivering high-quality, school-based group work and family support to young people aged 12-18 years who are negatively affected or are at risk of being affected by poor mental health.
The Blues Programme is an internationally acclaimed wellbeing programme for young people. Over six weeks, it teaches emotional resilience, reduces low mood and anxious thoughts. Crucially, it gets teenagers talking.
As a Wellbeing Practitioner, you’ll effectively engage with young people to deliver group work support, within a school setting but there may also be a requirement in a local community. As part of a supportive team, you’ll work alongside trained Action for Children Blues practitioners who are committed to making a positive impact in what is a truly rewarding role. This role involves elements of engaging with families and young people in the community and their homes. A strong passion to working with families who need often high levels of support is crucial.

PLEASE NOTE WE ARE UNABLE TO OFFER VISA SPONSORSHIP FOR THIS ROLE.
