“I lost my kids a few times, they went to foster care and I would have gone to a place like this if I had the chance. This is badly needed. I hid my drug use and people only found out about it when I had my baby and she was in withdrawal. I loved my daughter and would have welcomed something like this.” - A mother who has been supported by Aberlour

About Aberlour’s Mother and Child Recovery House

Aberlour is proud to be working with the Scottish Government for our dedicated Mother and Child Residential Recovery House based in Falkirk. Our service is designed to enable children of women with problematic substance use to stay with mothers during their recovery. Aberlour’s approach to rehabilitation aims to deliver positive outcomes for women and their children.

We are supporting families using the Parents Under Pressure (PuP) program which combines psychological principles relating to parenting, child behaviour and parental emotion regulation within a case management model. The program is highly individualised to suit each family. Parents are given their own Parent Workbook. For many parents, this becomes a personal journal of their treatment experience. The overarching aim of the PuP program is to help parents facing adversity develop positive and secure relationships with their children. Within this strength-based approach, the family environment becomes more nurturing and less conflictual.

What we are looking for…

Our relief workers play a crucial role in supporting our team. This work is offered on a casual, hourly-paid basis to provide cover during staff absence and/or particularly busy periods. This is a 24 hour service. There are different shift patterns, for example, 8am-6pm, 12:30pm-10pm, 2:30pm-10:30pm plus sleepovers and weekends.

Ideally, you will have experience of direct work with vulnerable families to support improved capacity for women and children and experience of working collaboratively with other professional agencies as well as a working knowledge or drug/alcohol use and its effects on women and children.

Applicants should hold a relevant professional qualification at SCQF Level 7 or equivalent knowledge acquired by other means, with a willingness to obtain the required qualification(s) for SSSC registration.

Individuals with lived experience of alcohol or drug use are encouraged to apply for these positions. People with lived experience are vital members of the team delivering this service to the women and children.

At Aberlour we want to make sure every child and young person has the love, support and opportunity they need to reach their potential. If you share the same vision, we want you to join our team. To have a look at our values please go to our website.

What We Offer

As well as a supportive team and excellent training opportunities, we want all our employees to feel valued and rewarded for the vital work they do.

Who Cares? Scotland is Scotland’s only national independent membership organisation for Care Experienced people. Our strategic vision is to secure a lifetime of equality, respect, and love for Care Experienced people in Scotland.

At the heart of Who Cares? Scotland’s work are the rights of Care Experienced people, and the power of their voices to bring about positive change. We provide individual lifelong relationship-based independent advocacy and a range of local and national participatory and engagement opportunities for Care Experienced people across Scotland. We work alongside Corporate Parents and communities to broaden understanding and create change. We work with policy makers, leaders, and elected representatives locally and nationally to shape law, policy, and practice, working together to build on the aspirations of The Promise and secure positive change.

The Advocacy and Participation Worker will provide independent advocacy supports to all of Orkney’s children and young people, including children who are identified as being vulnerable, children who are involved in complex decision-making processes (including both formal and informal processes), looked after children (including those who have been formerly looked after), children subject to child protection and child in need processes.

The Advocacy and Participation Worker will provide independent advocacy support to children and young people to help amplify their voices and share their views, especially within decision-making forums.

Advocacy and Participation Workers will also inform children and young people about their rights, ensuring that rights are upheld and respected by others.

At the heart of the advocacy relationship is trust – built through transparent, honest, accountable and reliable interactions between the child and their Advocacy and Participation Worker. Skilled at developing positive relationships with children and young people, you will place young people at the heart of everything you do.

As the Advocacy & Participation Worker, you will also help facilitate participatory opportunities via the Young Persons collective group. The group brings young people together, allowing them to develop confidence, a sense of belonging, and the opportunity to identify common issues. You will help ensure the collective voice of the group is heard by Corporate Parents via the Promise Board.

While we would welcome the knowledge gathered through relevant qualifications, we are just as interested in relevant work experience. We welcome and encourage applications from those with experience of care.

The successful candidate will be joining Who Cares? Scotland at an exciting time, when the voices of those who are in or have experienced care are growing in power, individually and collectively – bringing with them insight, challenge, hope and change.

If this sounds like the role for you, we would love to hear from you.

Do you have a passion for helping people?

Do you have excellent communication and customer service skills?

Do you want to work for one of the best employability providers in Scotland?

Would you like to help someone with barriers to build the confidence and knowledge to manage their own finances?

Then come and work for Enable Works.

Your role, as an Income Maximisation Officer, is to alleviate poverty, hardship and disadvantage by providing information, advice and advocacy on welfare benefits to those who have barriers to work.

Enable Works are the leading specialist provider of employability services for people who have barriers to work. We believe that every person in Scotland has the right to work in a job that is high quality and well paid.

Enable Works supports over 7000 people every year across 30 Local Authorities to learn skills for work.

We partner with thousands of employers to create inclusive cultures and improve the diversity of Scotland's workforce.

We are incredibly proud of our smart, capable, and motivated colleagues across Scotland and following a period of significant growth we are looking to grow our team.

We offer a generous salary, excellent benefits, and opportunities to develop and grow in your role.

We offer flexible working practices that promote a strong work/life balance so that when you are at work you can be the best version of you.

Change-makers sought! Do you want to help Scotland to Keep The Promise?

At CELCIS, we are driven by a powerful ambition: to create lasting, transformational change in the lives of children, young people, and families.

At the heart of this ambition is our unwavering commitment to ensuring that the voices, experiences, and rights of people with lived experience of support, care or protection services are not only heard, but understood so that these can meaningfully shape the decisions, services, and systems that affect their daily lives. And, we are committed to embedding lived experience throughout CELCIS, ensuring it informs and influences our internal culture, our ways of working, and our activity, from policy and research to practice improvement and system change.

The successful candidate will build on the strong foundations of participatory practice that have been established at CELCIS.

Supporting the delivery of our strategic approach to embed the voices and experiences of children and families, our Participation Practice Advisor will work with our experienced multidisciplinary teams across CELCIS, and work in partnership with organisations and the children’s services workforce across Scotland and beyond.

This role will have an emphasis on creating the spaces and resources which will equip and enable colleagues and stakeholders to develop good practice and knowledge. In this role, you’ll support the workforce to create readiness and build the confidence, skills, and culture needed to involve people with lived experience in safe, ethical, and meaningful ways. You’ll design and facilitate reflective learning spaces, co-production activities, and inclusive activities that are trauma-informed and rights-based.

We’re looking for someone who brings integrity and deep understanding of this work, someone who has “walked the walk” in Community Learning and Development or a related field, and who is passionate about creating the conditions where children, young people and families are truly seen, heard, and valued.

You’ll be a trusted, skilled facilitator and a passionate advocate for children’s rights and wellbeing.

Applicants with lived experience of support, care or protection services are welcomed and valued.
