A globe-trotting tourist called Mr K had a stroke. Hospitalised and very vulnerable, we put a unique plan together for him. He wanted to travel to Germany, but he wasn’t well enough. We placed Mr K in a care home to recover. Initially he didn’t like it, but our social worker worked hard to encourage him to stay. And he enjoyed the experience so much, he stayed for a year. As he was recovering, Mr K’s social worker got him an iPad and a phone to help him manage his finances and arrange his next trip. This enabled him to book his tickets to Germany. ‘Auf wiedersehen’ and he was gone! The Role: As a Social Worker in our Joint Homelessness Team, you can make your own powerful contribution in the lives of rough sleepers in Westminster. Losing work, relationship breakdown, traumatic life events, mental ill health, or problems with drugs and alcohol can push people already on the brink into rough sleeping. Together with our charity partners, we work to offer accommodation and support services that help people leave homelessness behind. We offer a wide range of housing and outreach support services to help homeless people regain their independence – from day centres and hostels, to specialist supported housing services for people with mental health problems, learning disabilities and young homeless people. We also offer counselling to help people overcome drug and alcohol addiction, befriending services and employment and skills training. You’ll join a social work team that’s co-located alongside healthcare staf
