We’re also proud to create opportunities that make things happen – for people, families, homes and communities. We’re a busy team with lots to do. We can only achieve this if we’ve got the right resources so we look for people and partners with as much enthusiasm and passion as we have for making things happen.
Forfutures is a service within the Group, which has been set up to deliver the homeless support service in Cheshire West and Chester in partnership with the Council. Forfutures is supporting those who are at risk of being homeless, those without secure accommodation and people sleeping rough. Due to the development and growth of the service we currently have opportunities available for people to join the team as Peripatetic Support and Resettlement worker.
This is a great development opportunity for somebody who wants to work within a social care setting and to gain wide range of experience. We are looking for somebody with empathy, organised and has a willingness to learn.
