Yorkshire and Humberside Asbestos Support Group (SARAG) is a charity provides comprehensive support to those affected by asbestos related conditions across Yorkshire, Humberside and North Nottinghamshire. Since 1999, their benefits service has raised £36.8 million for over 4,000 people. Since the introduction of SARAG's support groups in 2021, over 2,000 people have attended monthly events across the region, and they now provide a separate bereavement support service through 1:1 and groups settings.
The primary aim of this role is to facilitate five monthly peer-to-peer support groups across Yorkshire and Humberside, coordinating speakers such as solicitors and other professionals, liaising with service users to ensure attendance, and arranging catering. The role requires regular travel across the region, necessitating a full UK driving license and access to a vehicle. The postholder will support the implementation of Yorkshire and Humberside Asbestos Support Group’s strategic plan, ensuring that service users receive timely support, fostering social connections, reducing isolation, and empowering service users and their families with psychosocial support and access to relevant information.
