Mind BLMK is a local charity that has been supporting and providing services for adults affected by mental health issues for over 40 years.

We are excited to confirm funding has recently been secured to provide Crisis Cafés, to be delivered across the boroughs of Bedfordshire, Luton and Milton Keynes.

You will also be a motivating and inspirational leader, and be skilled at developing and supporting your team of staff and volunteers to deliver effective person-centred support for our clients. This high profile and challenging role will require a can-do attitude and enthusiastic approach to problem solving.

Once the services are mobilised you will be required to work in a flexible way in order to manage a service which operates during evening hours in the week and at weekends and also to engage with the wider BLMK team and external partners.
