About Gaddum
At Gaddum, we treat everyone as individuals. We really get to know those we help, understanding their world to offer a range of support that’s right for them. Our promise of tailored support is made possible by our breadth and depth of knowledge, through our unwavering commitment to the local people of Greater Manchester.
Our experience listening to generation after generation, for nearly 200 years, has taught us the importance of considering not just the individual but also the relationships around them. Our innovative approach means we can, not only build resilience, but identify further risks and offer preventive support now and in the future. At Gaddum, we believe that by supporting individuals, we ultimately help support entire communities.
Our aim is to empower and enhance the lives of people in Greater Manchester.
Outline of service:
Gaddum and Manchester Mind have come together to provide a new and innovative service which will support people to leave inpatient mental health settings and return to their community with the support they need to recover and remain well.
As a team, we will deliver psycho-social interventions, advocacy, housing and welfare rights advice and peer support. There will also be tailored support to young people (those under the age of 25). All we do is underpinned by listening and ensuring people feel heard – because we know that when people are listened to, they recover. The team will be working with colleagues within the mental health, primary care, inpatient and community sectors.
Job summary:
As a Peer Support Worker, you will have lived or living experience of receiving mental health care or treatment. As an ‘Expert by Experience’ you will support peers (people with similar experiences to your own) who are ready to leave hospital after being treated for their mental health needs. Receiving support from your colleagues, you’ll develop and manage your casework practice and hold a small case load.
Walking alongside people prior to discharge from mental health hospital, you’ll support people in the discharge process to get the care they need, and then into a community setting where they can continue to recover and begin to explore their aspirations. Ultimately, people will feel connected to their communities – to the right services, friends and family.
This role will work with a small but intensive caseload (max 12 cases for a full-time peer support worker) to focus on:
· Repatriate: when people are sent to an out of area placement (OAPs) advocate to get them back to Greater Manchester so they can recover in their community.
· Discharge: Supporting people when they’re ready to be discharged from inpatient mental health services to get back to the community and recover.
· Prevent re-admissions: Work with people, post-discharge, to ensure they continue to get the support they need to make informed choices, stay well and ultimately thrive.
Main Duties and Responsibilities
· To provide bespoke support to people that are ready to be discharged from inpatient psychiatric care to return to the community, building (with support) packages of care so they have a positive and sustained recovery.
· To work alongside people post-discharge, in their community setting (e.g. home or supported accommodation) to ensure they get what they need to stay well.
· To effectively manage a small but intensive caseload (max 12 cases for a full time worker), being flexible to people’s needs and short-term changes in schedule.
· To work in a person-centred, trauma informed, empowering and culturally appropriate way that enables people to feel listened to and heard.
· To help people engage with services and make sustainable links with their communities.
· To use and develop your knowledge of community care, policies, legislation and services to get people the support they need to recover and stay well.
· Identify when cases need escalation or onward referral and keep your line manager aware of case developments.
· Independently visit people in inpatient and community settings in Manchester and across Greater Manchester, adhering to lone working and risk management procedures.
· Occasionally visit people out of the Greater Manchester area who need to return to their community in Manchester (all travel expenses will be paid and non-commute travel time will be part of your working day).
· Build relationships with colleagues within services (e.g. inpatient staff, social care, CMHTs etc) to enable improved collaborative working
· Take part in multi-disciplinary meetings, representing the views of people, and their aspirations on returning to community settings.
· Support the development of this new service, drawing on your role as an ‘Expert by Experience’ and using what you hear from the people you support to contribute to the development of the services by reviewing and contributing to improvements.
The post holder will be required to undertake other tasks as reasonably directed by the Programme Management and Senior Management Team, which will usually be commensurate with the skills and experience of the post-holder.
All staff aree expected to work within all Gaddum / Manchester Mind policies and procedures. This role is subject to a standard DBS check.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.

Make a Difference with The Makhad Trust!
Position: Project/Operations Manager (Part-time)
Location: UK-based with travel to South Sinai, Egypt
About Us: The Makhad Trust is a UK registered charity dedicated to sustaining the environment and natural heritage of the Bedouin tribes in the Sinai Mountains and Desert in Egypt. Our focus on supporting them is by renewing access to water and supporting traditional lifestyles. The Bedouin are a marginalised community, who are barred from many forms of employment yet receive little or no help from Egyptian authorities. A 15+ year drought dried up wells, then collapse of the tourism industry in 2013 bought unemployment, and huge floods have filled in wells. Access to drinking water is difficult. The Trust gives support through restoration of wells for drinking and growing food, and building small dams, and small projects such as beekeeping training, herb growing and carpentry training. Restored wells provide drinking water and ability to grow crops for eating, promoting health and well being, and for income.
About the Role: This unique UK based dual role combines fundraising and administration in the UK with practical project initiatives in Sinai, Egypt. You will be instrumental in transforming lives by ensuring access to clean water and supporting sustainable livelihoods in a unique way by both supporting Sinai Trust in office operationally and directly in the field. The successful candidate will be travelling to Sinai for 2 weeks 4 times per year and will involve visiting ongoing well restorations, assessing new wells for restoration, cataloguing the costs by the well owner, and paying the well owner for the work done. Some of these will be easier to access, given their proximity to nearby roads compared to others which require a 3 hour walk into the high mountains to reach with steep mountainside journeys with no visible paths so the successful candidate will need to be mountain fit. Through these journeys you will be accompanied by our Sinai manager who is a Bedouin from the local town and will act as a guide and provide local knowledge.
Key Responsibilities:
Office-Based Impact:
-
- Apply for funding and liaise with funders.
-
- Write reports, keep records, and track income and expenditure.
-
- Update spreadsheets and plan journeys.
-
- Engage with stakeholders to communicate the impact of our projects.
Field-Based Impact:
-
- Travel to Sinai four times a year for two-week periods.
-
- Visit ongoing well restorations and assess new wells for restoration.
-
- Catalogue costs and pay well owners for completed work. Log information about restoration at well sites and enter data into spreadsheets.
-
- Navigate rugged landscapes, including high mountains and steep paths, to reach remote wells.
-
- Visit and support various small projects facilitated by the Trust.
About You:
- Proficient with Numbers/Excel spreadsheets and able to write reports, funding applications, and newsletters.
- Good at planning, risk management, and practical tasks.
- Numerate, self-directed, and comfortable working and traveling alone.
- Understanding of different cultural norms and not risk-averse.
- Mountain fit, experienced in trekking and camping, and sure-footed.
- A team player with good leadership skills, self-reliant, adaptable, and able to replan on the go.
- Trustworthy, honest, tactful, and diplomatic.
- Curious, eager to learn, and knows when to seek advice.
- Able to work in the summer heat of Egypt.
- Equipped with a laptop for record-keeping and preferably an iPad for field reports.
How to Apply: Send your CV with two references (one work reference and one character reference) Via Quick apply. Possible candidates will be called for an interview in the New Year. Confirmation of the selected candidate will be made after participation in a Sinai Journey in the Spring if the application is approved.
