Description

Would you like a role where you can contribute to creating systemic change in prison healthcare?

If you can work collaboratively with multi-agency colleagues across healthcare, criminal justice and community-based organisations and the vision to identify how family voices might influence change – our client wants to hear from you!

This is an opportunity for you to draw on your knowledge of criminal justice healthcare and play a key role in the delivery of the first Patient and Public Voice service for the families of patients in London prisons. Your role will work across London prisons to develop the mechanisms by which family voices can create change and inform practice. Lived Experience of the criminal justice system (either directly or as a family member, friend, or carer) is desirable for this post but not essential.

You will be confident at ‘opening doors’ and quick to form collaborative relationships with key stakeholders to ensure that all families have the opportunity to have their voice heard. This role is a great fit for someone who is energetic and committed and has a passion for working directly with local communities and supporting the delivery of effective participation. DBS check and prison vetting will be required for the successful applicant.
