About the PKD Charity.
Founded in 2000, we’re the first and only UK charity solely dedicated to improving the lives of an estimated 70,000 individuals and their families affected by polycystic kidney disease (PKD) in the UK.
PKD is a range of life-threatening inherited conditions that can cause kidney failure and affect other organs in the body such as the liver, brain, heart and bowels. Most people with PKD live with an uncertain prognosis, intermittent pain and infections, and then have to undergo life-saving dialysis or transplant in their 50s. A few babies have a rare form of PKD which results in death during pregnancy or shortly after birth; surviving children often have to have either a kidney or liver transplant before the age of 10.
We provide reliable, accredited information, advice and personalised support. We raise awareness of the burden of PKD, both clinical and psychosocial. We fund research aimed at understanding more about PKD and the discovery of therapies that will improve quality and longevity of life.
The Board of Trustees are committed to providing equal opportunities for everyone and encourage applications from all sections of the community.

Rare opportunity: Help those affected by road crashes and create lasting change with Brake, the renowned road safety charity.
Who we are: Brake has been supporting victims of road carnage since 1995, and we're on a mission to prevent future collisions. Every 20 minutes, someone is killed or seriously injured on our roads, impacting lives profoundly.
Join our team: We're expanding our National Road Victim Service and need a dedicated Caseworker to join our dynamic, compassionate team. Your role will involve delivering world-class support services to those at their most vulnerable.
Not your average job: This isn't a 9 to 5. You could play a significant part in rolling out trauma-informed support services nationwide. Make a real difference in the lives of those affected by road traffic collisions.
What we offer:
- A generous 35 days of annual leave (including bank holidays and 3-day shutdown period between Christmas and New Year. Pro-rata for part-time working patterns)
- An extra day off for your birthday to take whenever you choose
- Enhanced sick pay and compassionate leave
- Death in service benefit
- Employee Assistance Programme
- Flexible working
- Ongoing support and clinical supervision
- Be part of a skilled, friendly team with an engaged Board of Trustees
Who you are: We are looking for dedicated, adaptable and empathic people with a background in providing high-quality emotional support and advocacy. Experience gained in the following kinds of roles tends to transfer well to the role of caseworker at Brake: police force, roles within the criminal justice system, family liaison officer, counsellor, experience in health and social care or previous caseworker experience in any area.
Specifically seeking candidates that have:
- A full clean UK driving licence, with your own vehicle and a willingness to use it for work purposes (travel expenses will be reimbursed)
- Ideally located in the Kent or Essex or surrounding area. You will support service users through their preferred communication method, which may be via Teams or telephone and there will be some face-to-face meetings with clients in their own home or safe meeting place
- Experience of frontline care for people in crisis with acute vulnerabilities and risks (desirable but not essential)
- Comprehensive understanding of the processes involved in the criminal justice system (desirable but not essential)
- Research and advocacy skills – you will reach out to other organisations to support your cases where required
- Significant resilience, and willingness to be professionally developed and clinically supervised
We are interested in receiving applications, not to the exclusion of others, from candidates with experience supporting people who have suffered sudden bereavement or working with those with heightened vulnerabilities.
The greatest reward comes from knowing you have made a real positive difference to someone’s recovery from psychological trauma, and the emotional or practical challenges presented by their sudden bereavement or serious injury.
If you are seeking out a new challenge and think you have the skills, passion, and commitment that we are looking for, we would be interested in hearing from you.
About the team and how we work
Brake is passionate about creating an inclusive workplace that values diversity. We welcome your application whatever your background or situation. We particularly welcome applications from those who are part of the global majority, the LGBTQIA+ community or disabled. We are proud to be a disability confident employer. We don’t want you to ‘fit’ our culture, we want you to enrich it.
So, if you have a passion for making a difference and share in our vision for a world where no one is killed on our roads, we would love to hear from you.
The successful candidate will be required to go through an enhanced DBS vetting process due to the sensitive nature of the service delivered.
We do not accept applications from serious traffic offenders due to the nature of our work. Candidates will be asked to disclose any unspent points at interview. Employees are subject to driver licence checks.
To apply
Submit your CV and a covering letter which clearly demonstrate you have what it takes to perform this challenging and rewarding role.
We work to stop road deaths and injuries, support people affected by road crashes and campaign for safe and healthy mobility for all.
