**Specialist Support Worker**
At One Housing, we don’t only believe that everyone deserves a safe, secure, affordable home. We also believe that everyone deserves to realise their full potential and lead a fulfilling life.

Our Mental Health team is vital to helping us deliver on this vision. We work to transform the life experience of people with mental health support needs. The support we provide is delivered in a range of settings (like supported housing, assessment centres and outreach) and our customers’ support needs can include psychosis, forensic and personality disorders.

Most of our services have specialist therapeutic input and colleagues have access to specialised mental health training delivered by MH professionals.

All these measures make us the ideal partner for NHS trusts across London with whom we deliver several integrated services.
