As a community-based organisation for over 150 years, we are a vibrant and ever-changing charity that offers inclusive programmes in health &amp; wellbeing, childcare, housing and youth work. We are passionate about providing opportunities to those who are most in need. We successfully adapt to the needs of the communities in which we're based - during the pandemic we were able to provide food hampers to families in need, childcare support to keyworkers, and stayed in touch with our senior citizens group who, for many, attending our social groups is a lifeline. Our staff are dedicated to making other people's lives better through the services we provide, so if this sounds like something you would like to be a part of, we look forward to hearing from you.
