To support good population health and health inequality ambitions, specifically relating to healthy minds, children, young people and families and healthy communities.
To lead the development of valuable feedback loops between advocates and the VCSE sector, and to collaborate with the VCSA Insight and Impact Manager to produce insight reports that can be used to further influence system decisions.
To develop and maintain relationships with a variety of stakeholders operating at grassroots and strategic levels to ensure Health and Social Care services are being designed and commissioned with insight from the VCSE.

This citizen voice is a key theme to how we make decisions across our place – Bradford District and Craven.
During this coming year we will work together as partners to focus on our shared ambition of people living ‘happy, healthy at home.’ Specifically, taking pressure off front health and care front line services, including children and young people’s services.

At Parents And Children Together (PACT) we are genuinely passionate about helping families thrive. We believe that every child deserves a loving and supportive home and we are committed to providing the highest quality services to help make that a reality.
We have been at the forefront of adoption services for more than 60 years, working with local authorities across the country. We offer a flexible and innovative work environment, and we are proud of our three successive outstanding ratings with Ofsted.
We support children and families from diverse backgrounds. With access to our specialist therapeutic support services, we are proud to provide excellent lifetime support for our families’ adoption journeys.
Our adoption teams focus on assessing prospective adopters who can consider early permanence and/or adopting a wide range of children of all ages, sibling groups of two or more children, children from diverse ethnicities and children who may have physical or learning disabilities.
With your social work experience with children and families, you will manage all aspects of work with our valued applicants from the early stages of recruitment, information sharing meetings, assessment, preparation and training, through to successful placement and post placement support up to the making of the adoption order.
Ideally, you will have previous experience of completing Prospective Adopter’s Reports, or similar reports such as Form Fs, and/or experience in family finding activity for children requiring permanence.

About The Young Foundation
The Young Foundation is a national charity with a long history of innovating to create social change. We are a ‘think and do’ tank, working with people and communities to shape a fairer future, together.
The UK’s public services are in acute crisis. Political trust is on the floor. The struggles people and communities face are many, and are deeply knitted together. Consequently, our mental health is often poor, and our resilience is weakened. We must be prepared to unravel and reweave for the common good.
That requires working together in new ways, empowering radical acts of co-creation across communities, sectors and boundaries. For The Young Foundation, this is a moment to embody the spirit of our founder, Michael Young. To embrace collective effort and work collaboratively to show that, with the Power of Participation, we can redesign the social contract between people, communities, state and business to shape a fairer, greener future.
