Inspire North are a mental health and housing support charity providing a wide range of psychological and wellbeing services throughout the North of England for more than 3,000 clients.
People, integrity, collaboration and passion are the charity's watchwords and these principles drive the way the charity treats its own 460 staff and make it a great place to work. It says its ethos is to “put people at the heart of everything we do” and inspire them to bring energy and dedication to their roles and to be their authentic selves.
The charity firmly believes that its people's ideas are its real strength and encourages them to take ownership to put initiatives into action. Staff fill out WOW postcards on the company intranet to nominate colleagues who have “wowed” them through their commitment, resulting in monthly rewards.
Reacting to the pandemic, Inspire North's Covid strategy has involved coaching managers to support their colleagues while the CEO and group MD have sent out regular wellbeing vlogs to keep everyone updated and informed about developments through a company-wide WhatsApp. Every quarter, all staff are invited to an informal catch-up meeting with an executive board member to raise any questions or concerns.
This organisation is run on strong values / principles
Senior leaders pride themselves on rewarding initiative and good work through highlighting achievements on a weekly Keeping Connected email. They have also acknowledged phenomenal work over and above duty by sending gifts sent to employee's homes. Instead of a Christmas party, all staff were given four hours paid time to take a break from their normal working day as well as an extra day's holiday this year.
The experience I gain from this job is valuable for my future
Inspire runs a 'Future Leaders Programme', an intensive 3-6 month programme to develop leadership and management skills. It is designed for individuals who want to progress into management and have a passion, commitment and work ethos aligned to the organisation's values.
My team is fun to work with
After a Public Health England report concluded last year that members of the BAME community were more at risk from serious Covid 19 disease, the charity developed a Covid 19 Risk Matrix to identify vulnerable team members who could be targeted for physical and psychological safety measures to reduce any anxiety about returning to work.
At least 40% of senior managers are women.
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
