Location: Hammersmith & Fulham

Salary: £26,928 – 28,500

Type of Contract: Fixed Term one year up 31/03/2019, possibility of extension subject to performance and continual funding.

We deliver a pioneering project via telephone and electronic media for the national cancer charity CLIC Sargent. We require a dynamic individual who can sensitively deliver generalist advice, to young people diagnosed with cancer and their families/carers.

This role is an opportunity to engage with young people and families in an often difficult time and reassure them in terms of options and steps they can take in whatever welfare advice issue they present with. Knowing they have options to consider gives them reassurance in a time of uncertainty.

The advice areas are varied and interesting, with the opportunity to research and think outside the box to find the right answer. It allows you to develop a warm rapport with CLIC Sargent social workers all over the UK, and the accurate advice given allows the social workers to better help the families and young people they are working with to maximise the service overall.

Do you remember a character from a childhood book as fondly as an old friend?

If you do, you’ll know the magic of being able to slip into another world as and when you need to, or how books can make your world a bigger, brighter place.

For bookworms especially, it’s hard to believe that anyone could see reading as anything other than empowering, or even just a pleasure. For the third of children from disadvantaged areas who leave primary school without being able to read well, often it’s nothing but a chore.

That’s why we like to turn up on the doorstep, with backpacks of books, two little stools, and a pair of volunteers who know that words take you places
