Tomorrow, Sunday 7 September at 3pm there will be a national test of the Emergency Alerts service. These alerts are designed to notify you if there is a danger to life nearby.

Some military veterans or those living with PTSD may find the alerts trigger upsetting.
On iPhones and Android phones:
To opt out:
👉Search your settings for ‘emergency alerts’.
👉Turn off ‘severe alerts’ and ‘extreme alerts’.

If you or someone you know find the alerts distressing on Sunday, seek support:
🔹Speak to a friend or relative you trust
🔹Call a helpline trained to listen without judgement e.g. Samaritans on 116 123
🔹Call NHS 111 to get advice on your options for urgent mental health treatment and support

🌟 Employment Specialist – East Berkshire 🌟

Did you know?
👉 80% of people with severe mental health issues want paid work
👉 But only 8% achieve it.

That’s where you come in.

Our award-winning IPS (Individual Placement & Support) team is celebrating 10 years of helping people not just find jobs but thrive in them. 💼✨

IPS is more than job-hunting. It’s about personalised, one-to-one support integrated with our mental health teams - giving people hope, purpose, and the chance to transform their recovery journey.

We’re looking for an Employment Specialist to join our East Berkshire team (covering Windsor & Maidenhead, Slough and Bracknell). It’s a community-based role where you’ll:
✅ Support up to 20 people with severe mental health challenges into meaningful, sustainable work
✅ Build strong partnerships with employers to tackle stigma and create real opportunities
✅ Work side-by-side with clinicians, psychiatrists and Job Centre Plus for truly joined-up support

💡 You don’t need experience in IPS to apply — we’ll provide specialist training. What matters most is your empathy, perseverance, and passion for helping people succeed.

✨ In return, we offer:
✔️ Flexible working & 27+ days annual leave rising with service
✔️ Excellent NHS pension
✔️ Learning & development opportunities
✔️ Wellbeing support, staff networks & discounts
✔️ Free parking across Trust sites
