About Us
Learning with Parents supports all families to have positive learning interactions together and leads the sector to learn what works in tackling inequality.
In partnership with 150 primary schools, we support families across the UK to enjoy learning together at home. Families are motivated to sustain and enjoy frequent and positive interactions together.
Our parental engagement journey with schools starts by focussing on reading. Our digital reading log is an inclusive way for schools and families to record reading, replacing physical reading records.
Our full Maths and English programme builds on the positive habits fostered by our reading log. It replaces traditional Maths and English homework with fun activities which have parent-child interaction at their heart. Through behavioural insight research, innovative technology and teacher training we ensure that as many families as possible are supported effectively.
We are working to improve parental engagement across the sector, by producing evidence of parents’ impact and generating insights into how schools can best support them. Learnings are disseminated through the Parental Engagement Forum and amplified through the Fair Education Alliance.

About the Organisation
Stroke Association. Rebuilding lives after stroke.
When stroke strikes, part of your brain shuts down. And so does a part of you. That’s because a stroke happens in the brain, the control centre for who we are and what we can do. It happens every five minutes in the UK and changes lives instantly. Recovery is tough, but with the right specialist support and a ton of courage and determination, the brain can adapt.
We believe everyone deserves to live the best life they can after stroke. And it’s a team effort to get there.
We provide specialist support, fund critical research and campaign to make sure people affected by stroke get the very best care and support to rebuild their lives.
We’re working to improve the diversity of our team. Because we know that individuality leads to a richer experience for our people and better support for those affected by stroke.
We strongly encourage people from all backgrounds to apply. And we’re particularly looking to increase the number of applications from those with lived experience of stroke and those from under-represented communities.
Every five minutes, stroke destroys lives. Help us rebuild them and join our team.
In 2019, we developed a bold new corporate strategy so that we can rebuild more lives after stroke and make a bigger difference to people’s lives. To help us deliver our strategy and make a real difference, we are looking to recruit talented people to a number of new roles. If you would like to support stroke survivors to rebuild their lives, we want to hear from you!

New Vacancy for Operations Director at a well-respected charity in Newport
Do you want to make a difference with your leadership skills? Have you considered a leadership role within a well-respected charity that is making a difference in Wales?
The Gap Wales works to fill the gap between key needs in our community and current public services. The majority of our work is with asylum seekers and refugees. We work with them to help improve their well-being, advocate to meet essential needs and work in partnership with other local services.
After years of helping this community integrate with our wider community, The Gap Wales was registered as a CIO in 2019. Since then it has developed an enviable reputation, including glowing praise in both the UK Parliament and Senedd Cymru. We work in partnership with Newport City Council, Pobl Homes and many other specialist charities.
Last year we completed a Strategic Review of our charity to help us grow well. Demand for our services continues to grow as does the giving from many individuals and bodies who support the positive difference that we are making.
Now we need the right leadership in place. Working with both our highly skilled passionate staff and the Board of Trustees, this new Operations Director role will help lead The Gap Wales into the next phase. Come and join us on this exciting journey.
Although on-site people management is an important part of this role, there is also the opportunity to work remotely every Friday.
There are more details in the attached job description that I've attached. If you believe you could be the right person for the job, please send a cover letter explaining why & your CV. We are excited to hear from you...
** Deadline for applications = 31st July 2024 **
The Gap Wales is committed to serving the people of Newport & South Wales. We find ways to “fill the gap" left by existing services & charities.
