Recruitment process

• Fill in an application form
• Come and meet us for an informal chat
• At this visit, both or either party will decide whether to proceed with the application
• The application process involves 2 references (not necessarily from an employer), completion of a self-declaration form and Basic Disclosure. These must be approved before you start.

Just as we work with clients of all faiths or none, we welcome service volunteers from all walks of life. We do ask that our service volunteers are in sympathy with our Christian ethos and values, but they are not required to share our faith.

Our Mission Statement is:  “In Christ’s name we seek to retain and regain the highest quality of life which each individual is capable of experiencing at any given time.”
