Relief Community Inclusion Facilitator – Me Time
A fantastic and highly rewarding opportunity has arisen for a Relief Community Inclusion Facilitator to join our enthusiastic and passionate colleagues at Tameside Me Time. Me Time is Mencap’s social inclusion, leisure and community led programme, supporting people with a learning disability to develop the skills and confidence to develop relationships and be fully included in their local community. Me Time provides a range of support for individuals to do this, through direct provision of community activities as well as support to access community groups and local opportunities.

• Work in a way that enables the people being supported to make decisions and choices and encourage trying new opportunities in line with the life each person chooses to lead.
• Ensure the plans we put in place for the people we support are person centred and the person is fully involved in all aspects of the planning and review process.
• Be creative, dynamic, and adaptable to potential challenging scenarios in relation to the needs of the people we support.
• Ensure the safety and wellbeing of people being supported, monitor each person’s progress and report on the impact that the programme has on the lives of people.
• Complete all recording requirements in a timely manner and ensure high quality reporting and case studies.
• Communicate with the people being supported with dignity and respect.
• Be part of a team, supporting colleagues to build community networks, sharing contacts and connections. Raise concerns using the appropriate channels, particularly in relation to safeguarding.
• Be flexible and able to work from different locations and projects within the community.

The Me Time model is person centred and focused on improving quality of life for the people engaged on the programme as well as providing pathways to other opportunities, for example volunteering or employment.

At Mencap, everyone works with people with a learning disability either providing support or advice, or alongside one another as colleagues. Belonging at Mencap is for everyone, every day, everywhere.

• Everyone is expected to treat people well and make Mencap an inclusive organisation. • Every day we grow and learn. It’s okay to make mistakes but we learn from them and make changes. • Everywhere people will feel respected, valued, and safe to be themselves. We have Belonging network groups that meet online and are open to all colleagues. The groups include people who identify as Black and Asian, LGBTQIA+, disabled or with a long-term health condition, women, parents and carers, and their allies.
