Primarily based in GP Practices in the Edgbaston area of Birmingham.

Karis Neighbour Scheme (KNS) is seeking to appoint a Chaplain for Wellbeing as part of our Listening and Guidance Service.

The Listening and Guidance service is looking for an experienced pastoral person to join our team.

The Listening and Guidance service sits within the 'Talking Therapies' provided by the NHS. This professional listening support service is offered within Primary Care settings (GP surgeries and telephone), based on an approach to health and wellbeing which addresses the emotional, psychosocial and spiritual needs of patients.

The service is available for all patients irrespective of their faith, beliefs or cultural background.

Listening and Guidance has been found to be particularly effective for patients experiencing loss or change in their lives, e.g. in relationships, work, health, bereavement, confidence, purpose, lifestyle, self-efficacy, relocation, crisis, trauma or mental health.

The role involves delivering personalised care through listening sessions, addressing patients' emotional, pastoral and spiritual needs.

Training and supervision will be provided.
