The Coalfields Regeneration Trust (CRT) is the only community wealth building charity dedicated to the regeneration of Britain’s coalfield communities. For over 25 years, the CRT has worked with communities to deliver a breadth of projects creating opportunities for people, strengthening the role of community organisations and identifying place based solutions responsive to the challenges still experienced in former coalmining towns and villages. To support delivery, the CRT has developed an innovative community wealth-building model generating sustainable income to deliver both social and economic value. Enabled by engaging key stakeholders, partners and, most importantly the communities, activities delivered are personalised to meet the needs of the people, the organisations and the place.
Role
The role is to be part of the delivery team for CRT Engage, a person centred programme; delivering bespoke one to one support to individuals experiencing challenges that impact on their health and wellbeing. These challenges typically include: anxiety; depression; social isolation; low self-esteem; low motivation; poor physical and mental health; lack of family and community support; debt; low skills; low income; and unemployment. The role will also involve building networks in communities to increase participation in social groups and activities that improve health. This will involve consultation with individuals on healthy nutrition and lifestyle.
The role also involves supporting individuals who have pre-existing medical conditions such as IBS and diabetes and undertaking analysis of their diet with the use of nutrition software. CRT Engage works with a range of stakeholders in the community and there will be a requirement to liaise with referral organisations and maintain positive relationships with partners. This role requires the ability to work on an outreach basis, delivering activities such as events, one to ones and workshops that respond to the challenges that exist in former mining communities. This role will be required to support this aspect where appropriate, and also to link people to other services that meet their needs.
This role will involve remote working and occasional visits with other CRT Engage teams.
CRT Engage is an important strategic programme and contributes towards the delivery of the CRT’s Strategy and England Delivery Plan. The role is an essential part of this programme and will be required to maintain quality standards, comply with our internal systems and processes and work with the Development Manager - CRT Engage to review the effectiveness of the programme in response to community need.
