All postholders will be required to complete an Enhanced DBS clearance prior to the commencement of employment. The postholder must possess a full, clean, UK Driving License.

Foundation 92 is seeking to recruit a project worker to work in our Men's Wellbeing Hub.

This new service will offer holistic advice, signposting and support to vulnerable adult males in Stockport with a wide range of needs, utilising an asset based approach to support and encourage ex-offenders to rebuild their lives, increase their independence and resilience and improve their overall wellbeing.

The service will also focus on increasing social capital and building community capacity and informal support mechanisms, thereby meeting a key aim of preventing re-offending and reducing/delaying the need to access formal and statutory services.
