Are you passionate about health inequalities and mental health? Do you believe that people with lived experience should have a say in shaping the services that affect them?

We are looking for a Community Engagement Worker to join the partnership between Leeds Involving People and Synergi-Leeds. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a city-wide movement working to tackle racial inequalities in mental health and improve outcomes for communities across Leeds.

This is a unique and varied role that will be based at LIP but will spend 10 hours supporting the Synergi-Leeds project:

• At Leeds Involving People (LIP), you will engage with people with lived experience of health challenges to ensure their voices are heard in service design and decision-making.
• With Synergi-Leeds, you will support a nationally recognised network that brings communities, system leaders and services together to address racial injustice in mental health. (Read more about the work here: https://legacy.synergicollaborativecentre.co.uk/synergi-leeds-partnership-3/)

Your work will focus on building trust with underrepresented communities, supporting meaningful engagement activities, and making sure their feedback and lived experiences influence change. Whether you are co-producing an event, supporting someone to share their story, or facilitating a local conversation, your work will centre around engaging with people to amplify their voices.
