Parent Support Project Worker - Citizens Advice East Devon
- Multiple Locations
- Part Time
- £12.83 per hour
Contract Length: 12 months initially Leave Days: Equivalent 28 days pro rata PLUS Bank HolidaysJoin our Parent Support team giving direct support and advice to families across East Devon.IntroductionCitizen Advice East Devon (CAED) is a community-based charity that is part of the national Citizens Advice network.Our aim is to be the independent advice service of choice for the people of East Devon. Our advice is free at the point of delivery, confidential, and tailored to the needs of our community. We work in line with national quality-assured standards, and we enable people to move forward in times of challenge by giving them the knowledge and confidence to find a way forward.We work with national, regional and local partners to maximise our reach and impact. Our service is inclusive to all people in our region, and we actively ensure that we reach those most in need of our services. Over the last few years CAED has worked hard to deal with the pandemic and the problems arising from lockdowns. East Devon has a higher than national average number of children in receipt of free school meals. Due to proportion of rural homes in the region and lack of public transport, it is often difficult for families to access the usual support networks. Even necessary journeys can take all day and be very expensive. Local foodbanks have noted increased food insecurity among those families with children. 22% of the population were in relative poverty in 2021 and 9% with serious income derivation. In work poverty is above the national averageProject BackgroundEducation colleagues, trusted by parents, are often the first to pick up on family worries that are impacting detrimentally on children. They do not have the time and training to advise on many of the issues themselves but can often guide parents to take the first difficult step to seek advice. We have already had a successful year to prove the project’s worth. Over 160 families referred by primary schools are accessing ongoing caseworker support from the project at present. Over 75% of primary schools in East Devon are now referring families. All secondary schools expressed an interest in the project being expanded to secondary schools in the future if possible. Requests are being received for us to attend parents’ meetings and inform school websites on advice for maximising income and facing the cost-of-living crisis.Working on the ProjectYou will be meeting families and children and other professionals working with the family, and will be representing not only the family but also Citizens Advice East Devon in everything you do.
