Are you driven by a commitment to social justice and equality?
Disability Advice Service Lambeth (dasl) is Lambeth’s peer-led Disabled People’s Organisation. We’re passionate about making Lambeth an inclusive borough, free of disabling barriers to people that live and work here.
We want to appoint a Disabled person to work and train as an Advice Trainee in our small but dynamic Advice team.
When we say a Disabled person we include people with a long-term health condition, mental health condition, visual, mobility or hearing impairment; Deaf people; people who are neurodivergent and people with a learning difficulty.
In this role you will learn to support Disabled people to apply for welfare benefits, with a particular focus on disability benefits (for example, Personal Independence Payment, Attendance Allowance), and to challenge decisions.
You don’t need to have done this job before or have any qualifications for this part-time role - full training and support is provided. The contract is for 15 months.
We want to employ people who have the right attitude and a desire to learn. You will be able to demonstrate your commitment to disability equity, social justice, and creating a fair society. You may have your own personal experience of the welfare benefits system.
As you learn and build confidence, knowledge and skills, you will start to work with your own caseload with full supervision and support.
dasl’s success comes from dedicated work of our skilled staff, many of whom are Disabled people. You will be valued for who you are in our supportive and friendly team.
You will spend the majority of your working hours each week in our fully accessible office in Brixton. A large part of the role involves using a laptop or PC (with whatever access support is needed), and therefore clear admin and note writing is an essential task.
We strongly recommend contacting us to learn more about this exciting role. We can offer a 1:1 informal meeting via phone or video call
