Plus brilliant benefits!
Seeing Anthony ready to take on the world. Thats when it hits home.
We have a fabulous opportunity for you to join our awesome team. We support our brilliant customers to maintain a supported tenancy with the aim that they will be empowered to move on into their own independent accommodation. This role focuses on supporting with maintaining a tenancy and living as independently as possible. Our aim is to deliver long-term positive solutions for the people we work with and measure our success not by the number of people we support, but through the outcome of our care.
We use an asset based approach to help our customers to build their own personal resilience, improve lifestyle choices and prepare for independence by building on their own individual skills. We work alongside our customers around their housing and health goals, and you will be helping customers to identify where they are in their life and where they would like to be and then supporting them to work towards achieving their goals.

I really enjoyed the cooking healthy on a budget session and will definitely be making it again.
Ive signed up to do the HAP course because I know it will help me to become more independent and I want to be able to do things for myself.
