• Help individuals access appropriate financial advice and support

Do you want to play a key role in shaping a new project supporting people at risk of homelessness in a hospital setting?

If so, this role could be for you!

About the project

The Hospital Inreach service is part of a 12-month pilot across Forth Valley. You will be working with people experiencing homelessness who are admitted to Forth Valley Royal Hospital. The project supports people to complete courses of treatment within hospital and to plan for a discharge into accommodation that suits their needs and aids their recovery.

We are recruiting two 20-hour posts to deliver this pilot project, which replicates a service we have successfully run in Edinburgh for several years.

A quote from someone who used our Edinburgh service:

“You literally saved my life, I was sitting in my bed thinking I have nowhere to stay, and when they tell me to leave I will be on the streets in winter and won’t survive the cold or I would have to start using again and that would be it for me. Then you came into the ward to offer your service and it was like being sent an Angel to look out for me”

About the role

Working alongside clinicians in the hospital settings, you will provide one-to-one person-centred support to people in hospitals. You will work with individuals to enable them to identify housing options, personal outcomes and priorities for their health and wellbeing and link them to local support services and activities.

About you

You will have experience supporting individuals with complex social and emotional circumstances, as well as a solid understanding of the challenges faced by people experiencing homelessness. You will apply strong interpersonal skills to deliver effective one-to-one support as well as manage relationships with multiple partner agencies across Forth Valley.

You will genuinely believe partnership working is key in supporting the people we work with. You will be resilient and perform effectively in a fast-paced, high-pressure environment.

How we will support you

We will empower you to bring creative and innovative approaches to your work, encouraging you to explore new ideas and adapt your practice to best support the people you work with.

Your contribution will play a meaningful role in shaping service improvements and influencing wider systems change across the health and Social Care Sector.

You will also benefit from the full range of Cyrenians support, including our comprehensive training programme and dedicated staff wellbeing services.

About us

At Cyrenians we tackle the causes and consequences of homelessness. We understand that there are many routes into homelessness, and that there is no ‘one size fits all’ approach to supporting people towards more positive and stable futures. That’s why all our work is values-led and relationships-based.

About the Role

We are delighted to offer this 3-year fixed-term post, made possible thanks to National Lottery Fairer Life Chances fund.

• We are seeking a Community Connector to join our new Women’s Homelessness Service in Midlothian. This is an exciting opportunity to support women who have experienced homelessness and multiple disadvantage.

• Working alongside support workers, the Community Connector will focus on helping women to build recovery capital – their personal resilience, social networks, and community connections. The role brings additional capacity for group work, community engagement, and peer-led activities, complementing the direct support already provided by the team.

• You will support women to set goals, explore their strengths and aspirations, and access opportunities that promote wellbeing, recovery, and inclusion. By co-designing groups and activities, and linking women into local services, volunteering, and community resources, you will play a key part in reducing isolation and repeat homelessness.

Who we are looking for?

• Experience of supporting people facing disadvantage or exclusion.

• Strong communication and interpersonal skills.

• Ability to build trust, deliver 1:1 support, and facilitate group sessions.

• Understanding of the impact of homelessness and multiple disadvantage on women.

• Compassionate, resilient, and committed to inclusion and empowerment.

• A driver with access to a car is essential for this role.

What You will Do

• Provide 1:1 relational support, using tools such as Outcome Star (Home Star) to set and review goals.

• Facilitate co-designed group activities that promote wellbeing, creativity, and peer support.

• Support women experiencing multiple disadvantage to strengthen their recovery capital.

• Build connections with local partners (e.g. Women’s Aid, recovery networks, community groups) to expand opportunities for women.

• Advocate alongside women to ensure their voices are heard and rights are respected.

• Work in a trauma-informed, gender-responsive, and strengths-based way.

(Experience in women’s services, homelessness, or recovery is desirable but not essential. Lived experience is valued.)
