Company Description
At [Catch22](https://www.catch-22.org.uk/), we are proud of our reputation as a modern and progressive employer. Our 1,300 colleagues and 300 volunteers work at every stage of the social welfare cycle, supporting over 60,000 individuals from cradle to career.
Catch22 exists to help build a society where everyone has a good place to live, good people around them, and a fulfilling purpose. [We call these our '3Ps'.](https://www.catch-22.org.uk/about/our-vision/) We achieve this in two ways. Firstly, we improve lives on the frontline through delivery of public services. Secondly, we use our knowledge to change 'the system', to fix the complex web that can trap and disempower those it was set up to help. With the heart of a charity and the mindset of a business, we are uniquely placed to deliver on this challenging agenda.
Beacon Victim Care Service
Hertfordshire Police and Crime Commissioner has appointed Catch22 to deliver the [Beacon Victim Care Service](https://www.catch-22.org.uk/services/hertfordshire-beacon/) across the county. Catch22 Victim Services provide tailored support to individuals, to empower them to cope, and to recover, from the impact of crime.
As a Beacon Support Worker working with Anti-Social Behaviour, you will ensure that victims of anti-social behaviour (ASB) are fully supported through both the Criminal Justice process and any Anti Social Behaviour resolution processes to enable them to provide evidence of offending behaviour and to seek a satisfactory resolution. This includes navigation, advice, guidance and advocacy through multi-agency partners to seek solutions to long-standing issues.
In addition to this, you will ensure referrals to appropriate agencies are completed to promote victim resilience, recovery and long-term wellbeing. You will represent us at community partnership meetings and forums, and will ensure the victims’ voice is amplified in the appropriate settings.
An important part of this role is helping victims navigate the ASB Case Review process if they are eligible to trigger it. This involves being an advocate for victims in multi-agency meetings, as well as explaining the process to them so they can engage as an informed participant. The post involves some other regular multi-agency meetings across the county, and attendance at community events to raise awareness of support available.
