Join our supportive and dedicated Counselling team - we're recruiting a clinical supervisor

We are looking for an experienced clinical supervisor to undertake fortnightly group supervision for our counsellors, at our offices here in West Norwood.

Our counsellors are from person-centred, psychodynamic or integrated backgrounds and the majority are in training placements, while some are qualified.

Our BACP accredited community counselling service offers 20 weeks of free or low-cost counselling, meaning we can offer counselling to our diverse community in Lambeth, including people who have worse access or worse outcomes of mental health support.

We want to hear from you if you are an experienced counselling/psychotherapy supervisor, with a passion and experience for supporting counsellors in training and supporting clients with complex issues and multiple disadvantages  

Please follow the link for full details: Vacancies - Centre 70 

In October we had several events that allowed us to share and celebrate the work of our staff, volunteers and clients over the last year.

Our open evening hosted several different discussions and activities around wellbeing, giving us the chance to hear a range of views as well as showcasing our work. We spoke to clients, local residents, supporters and stakeholders who shared their experiences of the challenges people are facing, and their ideas about what is needed in the local community. It was also a chance for us to catch up and have a chat with colleagues, old friends, and familiar faces!

Discussing men's mental health, the challenges people face and what support we'd like to see in future. This year we hope to set up a group for men to explore issues around mental health, so please get in touch if you have any ideas or want to get involved.

 Our wonderful Inspire volunteer Paulette handled all enquiries at the evening, greeting each person and ensuring they all found what they needed. We have lots of volunteer opportunities at the moment at Centre 70, check our website  Vacancies - Centre 70 or contact volunteer@centre70.org.uk to find out more

Staff, volunteers, clients and trustees catching up and sharing ideas.

We also held our AGM meeting, thanks to our chair of Trustees Elvis Langley for chairing, and to ALL of our wonderful trustees for their hard work and guidance over the year.

Maternal Journal Exhibition

And finally, a totally different type of celebration: our Maternal Journal Group held an exhibition of the art and journaling work created over this year's Maternal Journal wellbeing group sessions.

The groups bring together new mums to explore their experiences and challenges of being a parent, and gives them tools to use to express their feelings, as well as a powerful experience of peer support by sharing together. The exhibition, held at Stanley Halls shows their very personal and powerful experiences, and some women even read their journal pieces at the exhibition opening. If you can't get down there take a look here, and contact wellbeing@centre70.org.uk to find out more about the next Maternal Journal Group.
