    • Carers Trust Cambridgeshire, Peterborough, Norfolk

      Aug 2015 - Dec 2017

      As part of the Young Carer's team, we support people aged 8-18, who care for a family member who suffer from a disability, illness, mental health issue or substance misuse issue. As part of my role, I support young carers to balance their caring role with their everyday life. We facilitate groups in schools and community spaces across Huntingdonshire, to give young people well needed respite from their caring role. We attend TAF meetings and we meet and assess young people to identify what support can be put in place. I also offer Transition Plans to those aged 14-16, offering directional 1:1 support to aid young people to achieve their goals and aspirations.

I supported the HR officer with the recruitment process to make it as quick and efficient as possible. I also worked with the Volunteer Co-Ordinator to help recruit volunteers through promotion and advertising. I am also contributing to the social media side of the charity to advertise our vacancies and services to new platforms of individuals, through the use of sites such as Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn.
