Case Worker (Dementia Support)

To provide a range of social, emotional, and practical support for people experiencing dementia, primarily focused on increasing physical activity/mental stimulation and supporting individuals to be set creative and ambitious goals for their support activities. To work with the Effro Project team to recruit, train, mentor, supervise and support a team of volunteers. To facilitate and support group work activities and provide advice on reminiscence activities as well as cognitive stimulation therapy to Service Users and Volunteers.
We work with people experiencing challenges with their mental health, and with communities who want to create a greater sense of wellbeing in the places that they live. Through our projects, we work with thousands of people each year.
We believe that long-lasting wellbeing comes about by understanding how lives can be shaped by traumatic experiences, identifying people’s strengths and focussing on healing. We know we can’t ‘fix’ people, but we can walk alongside people and help where we can on their journey.
We try hard to make Platfform a great place to work, we live our values and mission in everything that we do.
