Although AHMs work on a voluntary basis, they are entitled to claim reimbursement of their travel expenses and receive an honorarium.We would like to ensure that AHMs reflect the diverse community we serve. We are particularly keen to seek applications from people of black, asian or minority ethnic backgrounds, people with disabilities and males in general. Applications are also encouraged from young people as these are currently under-represented. We will however accept applications from all sections of the community, and will appoint on merit.Applications are also strongly encouraged from people who are, or have been, service users and/or carers. Due to the nature of the role we seek people who are/have been involved with mental health services outside ELFT.
