About our Charity

As one of the UK’s leading charities providing essential specialist equipment to children with disabilities, Newlife is dedicated
to making life better - for the families we serve, and for the people who help us to make that happen.

Through grants and emergency equipment loans, we ensure children get the vital equipment they need, when they need it, while our
free nurse helpline offers crucial support and information – as well as a listening ear. Our campaigns help to give children with
disabilities and their families a voice, advocating for change to benefit the families we serve. And we support adults with
additional needs with volunteering and employment opportunities, providing an introduction to the workplace and a means for career
development.

Across the whole of Newlife, our teams are crucial to our success – it’s not just a job; here you’ll be helping us to change lives
every day.


The Role

This is a hybrid role that requires independence, strong self-motivation, and excellent diary management. You will be responsible
for organising your own caseload, scheduling training, and delivering sessions with minimal supervision. Regional travel is
expected as part of this role.

Your primary role will be to deliver engaging, inclusive, and developmental training sessions to staff and volunteers who support
disabled and terminally ill children. These sessions, designed by the Play Service Manager, will equip participants with the tools
and confidence to create meaningful play opportunities in grassroots and community settings.

The role is ideal for someone who thrives working independently, can manage their own time effectively, and is confident engaging
with different audiences. Clear communication, professionalism, and reliability are essential, as you will be trusted to deliver
training independently while keeping the needs of families and children at the heart of the work.

Role Accountabilities

* Deliver pre-designed, engaging, and accessible training sessions to staff and volunteers of community based settings.
* Uphold the highest standards of child safety in all interactions and training.
* Manage your own diary, caseload, and workload with initiative and problem-solving skills.
* Conduct in-depth interviews with settings to understand needs and ensure the service is appropriate.
* Foster positive relationships and set realistic expectations with settings.
* Collect data, produce clear impact reports, and highlight successes to inform future planning.
* Maintain accurate and timely records of training, feedback, and follow-up actions.
* Maintain a strong understanding of the needs and experiences of disabled and terminally ill children.
* Confidently engage with partner organisations, settings, and community stakeholders.
* Act as a positive ambassador for the organisation, reflecting its values of inclusivity, respect, and empowerment.
* Ability and willingness to travel frequently and independently throughout the region to reach settings, families, children and
underserved or rural areas
*

At times Newlife may request you carry out additional duties in line with this role.
