Safeguard and support the wellbeing of young people
Build positive, trusting relationships
Encourage their interests, development, and independence

Complete sleep‑in duties as part of a flexible rota
Whether you're experienced, qualified, or simply passionate about supporting young people, we'd love to hear from you.

As part of the team, you could be:
Biking or hiking the Pennines
Taking trips to cinemas or theme parks
Or simply providing a safe, stable home where young people can thrive
