Job Purpose:

Can you offer you a listening ear, support and information to help others manage through the difficult times?

The Safe Haven is based in Redditch town centre and provides emotional support to individuals who are experiencing high levels of mental health distress. Support is delivered both over the phone and face-to-face so practitioners must have the skills and ability to switch between both methods.

In addition to providing that safe space to talk, we work with individuals to create wellness plans that support them to identify triggers and coping mechanisms. We also provide tailored signposting information and onwards referrals where appropriate.

The Safe Haven operates Monday – Sunday 6:00pm – 1:00am 365 days of the year. Shifts are worked on a rolling rota basis across the 7 days of the week.
