Worthing, United Kingdom B.E.S.T PROJECT LTD Full time

**Company description**

B.E.S.T Project was established in 2020. It is a 24-hour, semi-independent provision in West Sussex, offering accommodation with young person focused and trauma-informed support. Our service is designed to accommodate both male and female looked-after young people between the ages of 16 to 18. We specialise in building long-term and effective relationships with young people. Our provisions are based in Lancing and Goring-by-Sea.

**Our Core Values**

We BELIEVE in young people and redeemability.

We EMPOWER young people’s journey to achieve better lives and outcomes.

We help young people to SUCCEED by supporting them to achieve their goals and become valued members in their local community, as well as making positive contributions to wider society.

We achieve this TOGETHER with young people. They need positive relationships and healthy attachments with adults who believe, empower, and support them to succeed.

**Our Aim**
