About Disability Sheffield
Disability Sheffield Centre for Independent Living is a pan-impairment charity driven by people who self-define as disabled people, whether they have a physical disability, a sensory impairment, a mental health condition or learning difficulties.
They support disabled adults to make their voice heard, whether through individual advocacy services or through a range of projects seeking to ensure disabled people are at the heart of all decision making across Sheffield.
Main Purpose of job
You will be working in a small but busy team assisting with the day to day running of community social advocacy projects. Your job role will include attending and co- delivering group sessions, workshops, and events. This includes, but is not limited to, coffee mornings, art and drama sessions, and large community events.
As well as supporting their established groups, you will be building on our young person’s self-advocacy project that was started last year as the main part of this role. This will include working in partnership with other youth services to increase the voice and influence of young disabled people within services and their community.
Sheffield Voices work also takes them around the city and beyond, and there are many opportunities to develop skills in public speaking, group facilitation, event planning and campaigning.
