This post offers an exciting opportunity to support children, young people, and their families as part of the Whole Family Wellbeing service.

Renfrewshire's Family Wellbeing Service provides early intervention and support to families to prevent family breakdown, and to provide help to families at the earliest possible opportunity to avoid escalation to statutory services.

Renfrewshire's Family Wellbeing service offers a range of innovative supports to children, young people, and their families. Working as part of the school's team within the Family Wellbeing service following the Team around the child framework Senior Family Wellbeing workers offer integrated support based on the principals of Getting It Right for Every Child.

Family Wellbeing service staff also offer evidence-informed interventions including Non-Violent Resistance, Sleep Scotland, and Seasons for Growth.
