This is an excellent opportunity to take a leading role in the development, delivery, growth and evaluation of this project.

We hope to reach those who can benefit most including those who are older, frail, from BAME communities or have existing poor mental health.  This programme will use both paid staff and volunteers to help people build personalised support circles to improve their physical, social and emotional wellbeing.

We are lookiing for someone who is passionate about communities, with a good understanding of older people and the challenges that can arise in later life.

This is an exciting opportunity for a skilled person to join our staff team helping older people in Rotherham to improve their wellbeing through a ‘Community Circles’ approach.

We are an independent local charity, affiliated to the Age UK network, working with and for older people across Rotherham. Our work focuses around what local older people say matters most to them: 

• being less lonely
• staying independent
• being and feeling safe
• maintaining physical, mental and social health 
• being connected within communities

This project has been funded through The National Lottery Community Fund for 3 years.
