Job description

Volunteer Admin support

We are looking for a volunteer to support us in everyday admin duties, this could be but is not limited to:

  • Booking meetings
  • Email communication
  • Database creation

Our Plan (Summary)

Synolos will create a West Oxfordshire-based community wellbeing centre to open in September 2024, which will support the growing mental health needs of the community.

It will include 5 main elements:

  • A non-clinical setting to support all in getting early help.
  • A mapping and signposting service for quick support and district-wide joined-up thinking (MAP)
  • A community-wide platform will be based around a concept that we call the 4corners of community. This will create a powerhouse of mental health change within West Oxfordshire (further details are available on request).
  • Plug a number of local needs by creating new services. (Further details below.)
  • Operate a project that is sustainable beyond initial startup funding (further details below).

We will create a platform that will build a powerhouse of change using our 4Corners of the Community concept. This unique concept will create partnership work from statutory services, third-sector operators and funders, the business community, and the mighty power of the local individuals. The whole community must work together to reduce mental health illnesses, and we will facilitate this while creating much-needed services.

Project Rationale

With more people struggling with mild mental health issues—conditions such as depression and anxiety—demand for services has increased, this is clear. It is apparent that statutory services and funding alone will never be able to keep up with this. Never before has it been so necessary for a new approach to address mental illness that is both long-term and community-led. It is also evident that the NHS cannot be the only solution to all our mental health difficulties; there needs to be a community-wide approach.

The clearest route forward is to create a platform that empowers the whole community to take ownership and responsibility—a community wellbeing concept. The aim of this is to build a network that meets support and treatment needs, is fully funded, and involves all elements of the community.
