Because of the nature of the work for which you are applying, this post is exempt from the provisions of Section 4(2) of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975. Applicants are, therefore, not entitled to withhold information about convictions which for other purposes are "spent" under the provisions of the Act i.e. all convictions must be declared. In the event of employment, any failure to disclose such convictions could result in dismissal or disciplinary action by the Hospice. Any information given will be completely confidential and will be considered only in relation to an application for a position to which the Order applies.

I declare that the information I have given in support of my application is, to the best of my knowledge and belief, true and complete.

This applies equally to any medical questionnaire/forms I may complete.

An opportunity has arisen at ACCORD Hospice in the Patient and Family Support Team for qualified counsellors.

We are continually developing the team who support patients at the end of life and their families and require a flexible workforce who can work alongside the variations in demand for support that our services face. Due to the nature of the work, it would be desirable to have experience of understanding and supporting client’s pre and post bereavement, supporting the ever-changing world these families find themselves in. This role will also support the Renfrewshire Bereavement Network in our outreach facility.

In particular, we are seeking counsellors to join the team in a sessional way. This allows you to be able to offer the sessions that can fit around your other commitments while remaining self-employed. We have a successful track record in ACCORD of supporting this model and integrating this role into our substantive staff group in a seamless way.

For more information about the opportunity and the team, please contact Joy Elliot on joy.elliott@accord.org.uk or 0141 581 2000.

Joy is the Patient and family Support Team Lead.
