‘Kernow Connect with The Dreadnought Centre’: One-to-One Sessional Workers required for delivery across Cornwall.

A fantastic opportunity has arisen to join The Dreadnought Centre team delivering one-to-one sessions to young people across Cornwall as part of the ‘Kernow Connect with The Dreadnought Centre’ project. This project is a needs led, referral-only service, delivering a range of complimentary therapeutic interventions offering support to young people, aged 11+, with a specialist need, usually identified by a professional. In addition, there may be opportunities to work on a one to one basis with those not referred through the ‘Kernow Connect’ Project and with young people under the age of 11.

The Dreadnought Centre works within a person centred philosophy offering young people empathy and unconditional acceptance. Our work is child focused and child led and we use creative arts in the widest sense, to engage young people. One to one workers will ideally have experience in working with emotional and mental health and wellbeing and have a therapeutic qualification to a minimum of level 4 or equivalent, or be able to demonstrate relevant work experience.

One to one workers will be required to travel to a variety of locations, including schools, to deliver sessions.

This is a sessional worker opportunity not a contracted position. Sessions are allocated on a needs led basis and not guaranteed. The current session rate is £13.80 per session and delivered in blocks of ten sessions.

This is a rolling recruitment process with sessions available for an immediate start in the Mid, North and East of Cornwall.
