We are recruiting for our HenPower project in Leeds

HenPower Creative Engagement Associate

Equal Arts is looking for an artist with project coordinator skills and experience of working in older people’s care settings.

The HenPower project helps older people look after hens as a healthy and sociable activity whilst delivering a creative programme which could include arts, crafts, gardening, music or movement.

The Creative Engagement Associate (CEA) will coordinate a cluster of HenPower projects in Leeds.

The CEA will work with the management and activity coordinator in each care home over an initial 6-month period to establish the project. As well as delivering creative sessions the CEA will be expected to coordinate programme development.

Equal Arts will support the successful candidate who will work closely with the HenPower Project Lead and eventually with other Creative Engagement Associates in neighbouring clusters.

We’d like to find an artist with coordination skills who feels confident in leading a project with remote support.

The successful candidate will enjoy working with older people, have experience in delivering creative activities and preferably have some experience or interest in chickens and hen husbandry.
