WWIN are at the start of our exciting new venture ‘It takes a Village’ which provides specialist safe and supported accommodation project for new and expectant mothers, babies and young children fleeing domestic abuse. It is widely understood that domestic abuse can start in pregnancy and often escalates in frequency and severity during the ‘perinatal period’. This can have a long term impact on maternal mental health and long term outcomes for children. This unique project will be working in close partnership with maternity services, health visitors and other agencies with a mission to support women, babies and children at this vital time of life.
We are seeking support staff to assist in the running of our safe supported accommodation project supporting new and expectant mums, babies and children up to the age of three. The successful candidate will provide trauma-informed support, advice and guidance to women and their children living in the project. The role may involve some out of hours working, but currently no overnight working.
As a Domestic Abuse Safe Accommodation Support Worker, you will provide support to women and children living in, or moving on from, our temporary safe accommodation. Your role will focus on promoting their safety, health, and wellbeing through a proactive and empowering approach. A key part of the role involves helping women access suitable long-term housing. You will also be responsible for maintaining high standards within the accommodation, ensuring a safe, supportive, and respectful environment.
WWIN is committed to the personal and professional development of staff. You will be working within an experienced team willing to share skills, experience and support your learning and development.
