We’re looking for someone who combines excellent people skills and creativity. You’ll also have to be comfortable with figures and confident with IT, particularly using a database.

The role needs to be covered 21-25 hours a week over at least 4 days. We will consider applications from applicants able to offer at least 10 hours per week over 2 days.

 The new, varied role of Dementia Service Activity Organiser will play a key part in ensuring our dementia activities run smoothly. Key to the role is organising and attending the weekly Carers Rest group, which is highly valued by carers as a break from their caring role. You will also help with organising other groups and activities including Gateway information sessions and courses. This role is perfect for someone who ‘thinks of everything’ when it comes to organising an event or activity, but is also a people person who will thrive working with carers, people living with memory loss and volunteers.

25 hours a week initially over a minimum of 4 days; hours must include Tuesdays up to 2pm to deliver the Carers Rest

For enquiries about this role, contact Sally Petre on 0300 111 1919.
