Growing Hope provide courses to train facilitators in our When Dreams Change and Siblings Group courses to be run across the UK. These courses support parents and siblings of children with additional needs through different counselling techniques.

We are looking for a When Dreams Change and Siblings Champion, to assist with the smooth running of facilitator training at our central London offices.

We are looking for someone who:

  • Is available 4 hours fortnightly minimum.
  • Can be office based at our site in Islington.
  • Is welcoming and friendly.
  • Is well organised.
  • Can be a team player as well as working independently.
  • Has database management skills.
  • Has the ability to follow through processes independently.

Tasks will vary but can include:

  • Hosting on training days- welcoming people in, help with organising resources, organising drinks and food throughout the day.
  • Keeping track of resources, keeping inventory, and assisting with ordering when needed.
  • Managing email processes - contacting people who have shown interest to inform of new training dates, emailing updates for people booked on.
  • Managing ticket tailor- updating the system when new dates become available.
  • Sending packs- collating and sending out resource packs.
  • Post -training processes- following through with facilitators, collating feedback, organising, and sending certificates as well as updating salesforce.

We don't require our volunteers to be Christian, and the courses aren't faith-based and open to the whole community, however our faith is integral to all our planning.

Mission Statement

Growing Hope provides free therapy for children and young people with additional needs and their families in partnership with local churches across the UK. We have a vision to see 20 clinics set up by 2030. We aim to grow hope for children, hope for families and hope in Jesus. Growing Hope is motivated by the Christian faith and runs clinics in partnership with local churches. Our services are open to everyone of any faith background.

Description

Growing Hope was set up in 2017. As a charity we aim to grow hope for children, hope for families and hope in Jesus.
We want to positively impact as many children, young people and their families as possible across the country. We want families to know their value, have courage put back into them, and experience hope where things can be difficult.
We currently have three Growing Hope clinics: King’s Cross, Brockley and High Wycombe with another due to open in early 2023. The clinics offer varied therapies depending on resource in each location but can include: occupational therapy, music therapy, speech and language etc. We provide support groups for parents and siblings of children with additional needs through our clinics as well as offering facilitator training. We also support churches through accessibility training and auditing.
