Schools Coordinator
This is an exciting opportunity to build on past projects and engage with schools to work on a local level towards changing attitudes towards breastfeeding and seek to address the gap that exists in the National Curriculum with regard to infant feeding. The role will require a high degree of networking and engagement and will require someone who has the ability to work with statutory partners as well as volunteers across the county. A special approach is required for this piece of work as it involves working with organisations who do not view breastfeeding as a priority. Admin support is provided by the RBM office and additional support and resources available to support the role. This is a short term contract which is being funded by the Local Area Agreement.
Post One day per week (8 hours) based at the Bodmin Office (6month contract)
