About this role
The Trust has seen a significant growth in the demands for its services. The Trust is passionate about providing a face to face opportunity for clients to talk through the issues they have. We find that the presenting issue someone may have is not the core problem they may have, so we deal with multiple issues for a client.
We partner with the local Council, foodbanks and GP services to ensure that as many as possible have access to our services
