Role
Do you want to be part of tackling social isolation and building social inclusion in Dundee? We’re looking for an individual with fantastic community engagement skills who can join us in facilitating and supporting Third Sector involvement in the planning, development, delivery and evaluation of a One Stop Shop in Dundee.
The One Stop Shop will work with people living in Dundee who have been assessed as not meeting the threshold for social care, but who may still require lower level support or assistance to help them to maintain or improve their health and wellbeing. This will help to identify if there are particular issues contributing to isolation and signpost for assistance, as well as identifying ways of reducing isolation.
You will work with community groups and statutory bodies across the city to tackle social isolation. You will have excellent communication skills and be able to engage with a wide range of stakeholders to enable collaborative working. A key part of the role will be supporting individuals to engage in services, social activities and volunteering as appropriate. You will also support the development and maintenance of a directory of community resources.
