About this post

Wellbeing Enterprises (WE) has received funding from the Future Innovation Fund to develop a Social Prescribing Training Academy for the Liverpool City Region (LCR). The Academy’s aim is to bolster the capacity and develop the skills and competencies of the social prescribing workforce in the LCR. It will also provide pathways to volunteering, work experience and employment for local people.

Social prescribing links patients to non-medical sources of support in the community as a way of responding to the wider biopsychosocial needs of patients. This approach is typically facilitated with the support of a Social Prescribing Link Worker / Wellbeing Officer.

As the Project Lead, you will drive forward the development of the Academy, having a key role in its design, implementation, and delivery of training. This is an excellent opportunity for a focused and creative individual who is looking to take ownership of a project and drive it from a concept to a reality. We are looking for candidates who place emphasis on quality of provision and long-term sustainability.

Further Opportunity

We're also looking for an Academy Tutor for the Social Prescribing Training Academy. You can find out more by clicking here
