Preston, United Kingdom Bedspace Full time

**About the Preston Outreach team**

We work with care leavers, asylum seekers, NHS patients, and families, providing comprehensive support within the community.

For young care leavers, our focus is on facilitating a smooth transition into adulthood, empowering them with essential independence skills. This includes preparing them to take on a tenancy or move into social housing, enabling them to confidently live on their own.

In the case of Unaccompanied Asylum-Seeking Children (UASC), we assist in their settlement process, help navigate immigration procedures, support their integration into college life, facilitate access to healthcare services, and ultimately guide them towards complete independence.

For adult NHS referrals dealing with complex mental health issues, our dedicated team provides community-based support. We work closely to address their specific needs and contribute to their overall well-being within the community setting.
