Type of contract: Permanent

Location Great Western Hospital, Marlborough Road, Swindon, SN3 6BB,

Report to Navigator Programme Manager

Work closely with: Anyone affected by leukaemia, myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) or myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN). This includes patients, carers and family members. Liaising with hospital staff, nurses, other support charities, care workers and staff at Leukaemia Care.

You will refer patients, carers and family members internally to advocacy, welfare, support groups and other services as appropriate.

WHO WE ARE, AND WHAT WE DO

Leukaemia Care is the UK’s leading leukaemia charity. For over 50 years, we have been dedicated to ensuring that everyone affected receives the best possible diagnosis, information, advice, treatment and support.

We are here for everyone affected by leukaemia and related blood cancer types – such as myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN).

We provide information, advice and support for anyone affected, this includes patients and their friends and families too. We raise awareness of the issues impacting people affected by leukaemia, MDS and MPN, and campaign to fix them. We are driving early diagnosis, raising public awareness, improving services and ensuring access to effective treatments.

How do we do this? We have a wide-range of services aimed at patients and their loved ones from diagnosis and beyond. Our support services range from nurse-led helplines, support groups and free-of-charge medical information to access to paid counselling, grants for those feeling the financial strain of a diagnosis and providing buddies so people always have somebody to talk to who have experienced something similar to them. We encourage you to have a read of our website and find out all the ways we support from diagnosis and beyond.

Crucial to our work is raising awareness of leukaemia as a blood cancer and the importance for early diagnosis. Leukaemia can be difficult to spot as the symptoms are similar to many other common conditions. Unfortunately, most people are not aware of the signs of leukaemia and this leads to diagnosis being delayed, which can worsen outcomes for patients.

As well as working to educate the general public through our #SpotLeukaemia campaign, we are working closely with our colleagues working in front line medical services to ensure they have the most up-to-date information on diagnosing leukaemia. We know that by raising awareness and working to educate health care professionals, we can save lives and improve outcomes.

Citizens Advice, LiveWell Dorset, Access Wellbeing, Parent Champions (SENDiass)).

church events.

As a Christian initiative, the Lifecentre operates with generosity, integrity, and grace, upholding
professionalism, safeguarding, and health & safety standards.

3.  Operationally, manage, inspire, train and support the team of volunteers (recruiting, where

project continues.  Ensure effective lines of communication, and create a grace-filled, empowering
culture.

4.  Ensure that all activities are carried out in a safe and sustainable manner for staff, volunteers and

clients; implementing in a professional way, the safety and safeguarding procedures of Faithworks.

5.  Ensure all referrals are dealt with, prudently and accurately, and with awareness of confidentiality
and client sensibilities; ensure that referral agencies understand their responsibilities and receive
regular information as required.

6.  Oversee and develop partnership relationships in the Foodbank (including SMILE and Faithworks
CMA) to help guests find the support they need, welcoming and ensuring all partner agencies are
known by the local team and understand how they dovetail with the rest of the support.

7.  Develop and roll-out community activities in the Life Centre that will enhance support for guests.

8.  Encourage and exemplify a Christian ethos in the Foodbank that matches the FW values, offering
prayer to the guests and volunteers if desired, and linking guests to local Christian activities as
