Bank Mental Health Recovery Worker
Job Introduction
Everyone’s Turning Point is unique. It’s the moment when they realise they’ve made a small, but important, step forward. Very often, that small step is the start of something bigger, but only when the right support, advice and services are in place. That’s where you come in. You’ll make a real difference to their lives as you develop the personal, flexible and recovery-focused support plans they need to help turn things around. Passionate about people, you’ll support them to take control, improve their quality of life and face the future with confidence.
We are looking for a dedicated, passionate and skilled Recovery Support Worker to join our new team at Beach House. The service provides high support housing to service users with enduring mental health backgrounds. The service consists of 8 flats and offers a full recovery and rehabilitation package to our service users.
We aim to support and assess on-going needs of our service users to build on their existing skills while learning new ones. All service users are allocated to a named Support Worker. Service users are required to fully participate in the process of planning their care, which includes attending support/key work sessions with staff; this time is for clients to discuss any issues or areas of concern they may have, or perhaps go out for a coffee/trip to local activities, or be supported with a practical task in their flat such as cleaning or laundry.
Role Responsibility
You will provide recovery focused support to service users in accordance with their support plans. You will have well-honed skills in positive communication, engagement, and will be able to demonstrate unconditional positive regard for service users.
You will have the maturity to work within a positive framework supporting clients. You will have the ability to deliver services and interventions in a person centred, non-judgmental manner, and recovery-based way.
You will work alongside members of the service user’s circle of support, to enable individuals to be happy, healthy, and successful in achieving their life goals.
Your typical duties will include:
- providing support and guidance to service users
- administering medication
- daily record keeping and incident report writing
- running group activities
- help with inducting new staff members
- upholding the cleanliness of the service to adhere to infection prevention control measures
The Ideal Candidate
Previous experience in the mental health sector is desirable but not essential. What is important is that you have a genuine desire to support individuals in their recovery and have a can-do attitude.
We need compassionate, proactive and professional individuals who are highly motivated, hardworking and keen to support service users with mental health and complex care needs. Being a good communicator is essential, to be able to get on with people of all ages and from all backgrounds, and you will also be liaising with other professionals.
We value the personal skills and interests you can bring to the role and to the lives of the service users we support, such as: sports, arts and crafts, music and cooking to name but a few.
About us
As a leading health and social care provider with more than 300 locations across England, we take real pride in the services we offer.
We run all of our services on a not-for-profit basis; instead, we invest every penny back into our services and people. We never stop believing in change for the better, and we work constantly to improve the lives of the people we support.
What Benefits Will I Receive?
Being a member of our bank is a fantastic opportunity to work flexibly around your existing commitments, giving you control over when you want to work in order to suit your own circumstances. But not only that – being employed by Turning Point will also give you access to many of our rewards!
Your annual leave entitlement will accrue as you work, to the equivalent of 29 days a year.

Job Description
Looking for a meaningful career where no two days are the same? Welcome to No Limits at MacIntyre.
At MacIntyre, we don’t just offer jobs — we offer opportunities to change lives. If you've ever imagined working in education but outside the confines of a traditional classroom, this could be your perfect next step.
No Limits is our innovative education programme for young people aged 16+ with learning disabilities and/or autism. Together, we explore real-world learning — in the community, in work placements, and through personalised support that adapts to each young person’s interests and needs.
This role is term-time only (39 weeks per year), working 3 days per week.
In this role, you’ll support young people on their journey to independence. You’ll help them build confidence, develop essential life skills, and discover their own unique path into adulthood.
You might be supporting someone like Harriet*:
Harriet found the classroom overwhelming. With social anxiety and a speech impediment, she often felt unheard and unsupported. When Harriet joined No Limits, we worked closely with her to understand her communication style, introduce assistive technology, and empower her to make choices in her day-to-day life. Now, she’s confidently ordering her own food in cafés and is thriving at college with support from the MacIntyre team.
What we’re looking for:
We’re not looking for formal teaching experience — we’ll provide full training. What really matters is who you are:
Are you warm, energetic and curious about people?
Can you see potential where others see challenge?
Do you believe in listening first, then acting with empathy and creativity?
If yes, you’re already speaking our language.
You’ll need a full UK manual driving licence, as travel is an essential part of the role.
Why join us?
A role with
real variety— every day brings something newThe chance to work 1:1 or in small groups with young people in their own communities
Ongoing training and development in a
supportive, values-led organisationThe opportunity to be part of a team that puts
relationships and respectat the heart of everything we do
This is more than a job. It’s a chance to be someone who makes a difference, helping young people grow in confidence, build independence, and feel proud of who they are.
If you're ready to start a career where you matter as much as the people you support, we’d love to hear from you.

About you
Experience is not essential. For us, underlying ability and attitude are just as important as background and experience.
If you have not worked in the field of education before then please don’t be put off. We can provide all of the specialist training you need, but we can't train you to have initiative, to be friendly and patient, and those are essential qualities for this work.
You must be a driver with a UK Manual Driving Licence and have your own transport, willing and able to travel across the area, supporting young people from their own homes. Reasonable mileage is reimbursed.
GCSEs (or equivalent) minimum C grade in English and Mathematics are essential.
Some more things you need to know:
- Most of your work will be during term-time but there is up to three weeks' training and development commitment during academic holidays
- Some young people require assistance with personal care or medication

Job Description
Looking for a Role that Fits Your Lifestyle? A Term-Time Education Role Might Be Perfect for You!
Are you looking for a fulfilling job that allows you to make a real difference in the lives of others? Join our team in Great Holm, Milton Keynes, where we’re expanding to support a growing number of students. No experience in education? Don't worry – we believe in your potential, and we’ll provide the training you need to succeed!
- Full-time (38 hours)
- 37 weeks per year contract
- Comprehensive training and ongoing professional development
- A chance to be part of a supportive and inclusive team that makes a real difference
As a Community Teaching Facilitator, you won’t be confined to the classroom. You’ll work with young people whose learning difficulties or autism make mainstream education less suitable for their needs. With a focus on individualised learning, you’ll teach essential life skills and provide lessons in literacy, numeracy, and ICT, all tailored to each student's unique needs.
One of the many rewarding stories we share is that of Amanda*. When Amanda started with us, she was being supported 2:1 at her previous school and had been excluded from group lessons. By creating a personalised communication system, we helped Amanda take control of her learning experience. This gave her confidence, reduced challenging behaviours, and allowed her to engage in group activities, eventually forming friendships with her peers. This is just one example of the impact you can have when you work with us.
At the heart of everything we do are our core values, and they shape the way we approach education and support. Our DNA includes:
- Ambition for ourselves and for each other– We’re committed to growing and developing as a team, always striving to be better for those we help.
- Everyone has a voice and is listened to– Whether you’re a student, a parent, or a team member, your voice matters.
- We keep on learning– In this role, you’ll be constantly learning and evolving to meet the needs of those we support.
- We want equality– We are committed to providing equal opportunities and support for every person we work with.
- Everyone feels safe and in control– We prioritise creating a safe, supportive environment where all can thrive.
- We value friends, family, and neighbourhoods– Strong communities are key to success, and we foster those connections every day.

Overview
David Lock Associates is recruiting a Senior or Associate level Masterplanner with a strong portfolio in masterplanning urban extensions and greenfield sites. The successful candidate will join our committed team based in the City of Milton Keynes and work in multidisciplinary teams to produce imaginative, compelling and deliverable masterplans for landowners, developers and the public sector. At DLA you will work alongside and learn from creative designers, town planners and communications experts with extensive industry practice and knowledge. Our approach is collaborative, ambitious and innovative, and we aim to create great places where new communities can thrive.
You will be able to deliver imaginative concept work for vision documents and site appraisals to support land promotion, as well as contributing to the preparation of illustrative masterplans, parameter plans and Design & Access Statements to support outline planning applications.

Experience in design coding would be a distinct advantage. You should be confident in expressing and presenting your work to a range of audiences – from colleagues and clients to local authorities and stakeholders.
DLA is fortunate to have an enviable client list, but we actively tender for new work, and you should be able to demonstrate success in this area, having contributed to winning bids.
We are particularly keen to hear from those with a background in landscape architecture who have worked at a strategic scale. For the successful candidate there is real potential to make your mark at DLA on nationally significant projects, alongside clear career progression.
