Bolton Wanderers in the Community are recruiting!

BWitC are recruiting for a Mental Health Transformation Officer - working within Primary schools you will revolutionise the way we think, talk & act about mental health, providing early intervention & prevention.

7 March 2023

As a Mental Health Transformation Officer (MHTO) you will work within up to five Primary schools and will help to revolutionise the way we think, talk and act about mental health, providing an early intervention and prevention service for children. The aim is to increase resilience and give pupils the necessary tools to thrive.

The MHTO will work with the school to identify those requiring one-to-one support, predominately pupils who are currently accessingMental Health support services, or are at higher risk of needing them. Using a flexible approach, they will provide interventions at the earliest opportunity; providing education on coping strategies and self-management with the end goal to reduce the number of individuals and therefore the demand on local CAMHS services.
