We are enthusiastic about providing innovative and ambitious opportunities for our young people.

As part of an exciting expansion initiative, we are in the process of establishing a new residential facility in Norwich named 'The Den', which will offer holistic care for young individuals with learning disabilities who may have complex health requirements and/or challenging behaviors.

'The Den' is designed to accommodate two young individuals or operate as a single-occupancy residence. The service will have access to its own vehicle and is located in a Norwich suburb with excellent public transport links, as well as proximity to the city’s rail station. This advantageous location ensures that the children residing there will have convenient access to local shops, parks, and various leisure facilities, including bowling alleys, swimming pools, and cinemas, along with easy routes to the Norfolk coast.

The rewards from direct engagement with the young individuals can be immense. Additionally, you will receive a comprehensive initial induction and training program, ongoing training opportunities, the option to join a well-regarded pension scheme, generous holiday benefits, and support and supervision.
