RISE Highland is a partnership between Barnardo's Scotland, Highland Child Protection Committee, Highland Council, Police Scotland, and other local stakeholders.
Barnardo's is looking to recruit a highly skilled individual with experience and knowledge of working with children and young people who are vulnerable to exploitation. You will join our RISE Highland Service working alongside colleagues who are motivated and passionate about protecting children and young people from abuse through exploitation.
As a service, our aims are:
1. To protect children and young people from child exploitation.
2. To provide one-to-one person-centred support to young people to help them on their journey of recovery.
3. To empower children and young people who are survivors of exploitation, or at risk of such abuse, to develop strategies that will support them in their recovery and to manage risk.
4. To reduce the risk to vulnerable children and young people being abused through providing training and awareness raising to professionals, parents/carers, as well as to children and young people.
Our service provides bespoke packages of emotional and practical support to young people in response to identified needs. We are trauma-informed and person-centred, ensuring that the voice of the young person is central to the support they receive.
