**About Us**

There is a need to adapt the way West Sussex County Council delivers services so that we can better meet the needs of people in West Sussex both now and in the future. The Adults in House Social Care Services are making changes that will ensure day services are flexible, responsive and see people for who they are, as well as what they can and wish to do.

The West Sussex Day Opportunity hub based in Shoreham by Sea, has undergone a recent refurbishment plus a change of management and is now open Monday to Friday 9 am until 5 pm.

The Glebelands hub welcomes people with a variety of needs to remain independent. Staff recognise that everyone is an individual and provide person centred opportunities where the key aim is to improve people’s well-being using a strengths-based approach.

The Hub promotes independence and well-being, supporting people to remain independent. The people who attend the Hub can be on a time-limited programme to build their independent living skills or develop new interests and hobbies. Other people attend to retain independence, reduce isolation and loneliness, provide carer respite, and learn new skills, in a safe environment.

At the Glebelands hub, we are looking to recruit an organised and highly motivated Day Opportunities Coordinator to work on a full-time, 6-month temporary secondment basis.
