Young Carers Support Coordinator
Posted 4 hours 37 minutes ago by Winchester and District Young Carers
Winchester and District Young Carers are a small independent charity who supports young people who take on caring responsibilities for an unwell or disabled family member. We provide programmes of support to empower young carers to look after their physical and emotional wellbeing and have experiences they would otherwise miss out on.
We believe that young carers are children first, and should be free to develop emotionally, and take full advantages of opportunities for educational achievement and life success.
As a Young Carers Support Co-ordinator (Volunteering Lead), you will work as part of a small dynamic team to plan and deliver our support programmes for young carers. This will include taking responsibility for a specific age group and leading on their programme as well as supporting with other age groups.
You will also coordinate a team of volunteers including their recruitment, training, retainment, supervision and professional development. Additionally you will carry out individual assessments of young carers, and work with other organisations to support young carers and their families wellbeing.
We run an Exploration Programme which focuses on wellbeing - this currently runs on Wednesday afternoon/evenings during term time.
We run an Activities Programme which focuses on new experiences and respite - these are daytimes during school holidays. Usually 2 or 3 per school holiday week.
This is a great opportunity to work for a well-respected charity. Key benefits include opportunities for hybrid and flexible working, 24 days a year annual leave (pro rata), a workplace pension scheme with employer contributions, and a chance to learn and grow with an organisation that is passionate and creative about its mission.
As part of our commitment to safeguarding, please note that this post is subject to an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) and reference checks.

Interviews will take place on Thursday 3rd April 2025.
We look forward to receiving your application!
