Crynodeb

Barnardo's provides supported accommodation to young people aged 16-24 across a number of sites in Lancashire. The service aims to provide young people with the skills, knowledge and confidence needed for independent living. The young people who live in our accommodation are from a range of backgrounds and are often either in the process of Leaving Care or have experienced homelessness. The services are staffed 24 hours per day by a dedicated team. Young people can live within our accommodation for up to 2 years so that they can move on successfully to their own accommodation in a planned and coordinated way.

The service that this post links to is:

2a High Street – this service is based in the centre of Lancaster and provides accommodation and support for 7 young people at any one time.

Mariner's View – this service is based in the centre of Lancaster and is comprised of 11 self-contained flats, supporting 11 young people at any one time.

Initial Specific Responsibilities

24 hour staffing 7 days per week is required in our supported accommodation services and we wish to identify a new team member to join our team of reliable and high quality workers, to assist us in the delivery of the service.

To be successful in this role you will need to have a range of skills and abilities, and most importantly you will need to enjoy the challenges and rewards of working with young people. The successful candidate will have a planned induction and will participate in range of training.
