Model self-awareness, personal responsibility, self-belief, self‑advocacy, and hopefulness in my daily practice. Support people to engage with the service, including welcoming them and helping with first conversations. Offer emotional and practical support one‑to‑one and in groups, helping individuals build skills, confidence, and the ability to self‑manage their wellbeing. Help people access community services and opportunities, such as housing advice, financial support, education, and social activities. Maintain strong knowledge of safe, accessible community spaces that can support people’s recovery. Co‑facilitate peer‑led and recovery-focused groups within the community. Work collaboratively as part of a multi-agency team, sharing information appropriately to safeguard individuals and support their recovery journey. Participate in team huddles and multi‑disciplinary meetings. Contribute my lived-experience insight to service design, co‑production, and continuous improvement. Create lived‑experience‑informed resources and materials that support the delivery of the service. Support individuals to transition onward from the service when they are ready.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
