Full Job Description

Our Reading Community Outreach Service has been designed to make a real difference to people's lives, and to target support to refugees and communities in the borough of Reading.

9 weeks of 1:1 personalised support, including an initial assessment, developing goals and a support plan. You will build therapeutic relationships with service users, creating an environment where they feel able to talk openly, and feel safe enough to move forwards in their recovery. Support will be guided by their needs and preferences, including areas such as:

  • Self-management and coping strategies

  • Accessing employment, training, or volunteering

  • Linking people into specialist housing, benefits, debt, or finance services

  • Linking people into community opportunities to tackle isolation.

  • Triage assessment for crisis support at our Breathing Space service.


  • This service is open between Monday to Saturday from 9 am to 5 pm.

    This is a 12 month fixed term position.
