Good News Family Care is seeking a caring and motivated Christian woman to join our Family Centre Support Team in delivering all aspects of the Residential Service.

Good News Family Care is a Christian charity based in Buxton, Derbyshire, providing accommodation and support for families in crisis since 1994.

Our Residential Family Centre in Buxton offers accommodation and support to women and children who are homeless, fleeing domestic abuse, and who may also experience related mental health difficulties.

As a key member of the support team, you would use your qualifications and experience to support vulnerable women and children in our residential/refuge centre and move-on accommodation in the community, supporting them to live independently and eventually find permanent accommodation.

The Family Centre accepts women who may be accompanied by their children; boys over 10 are accepted subject to risk assessment, up to age 12 only.
We are urgently recruiting a female support worker to join our caring, motivated team, which includes staff from a range of complementary professional backgrounds.

You must be able to work flexible hours, and the post also requires overnight sleep-ins.

Please note that this role has a genuine occupational requirement for the post holder to be fully committed to the charity’s Christian ethos, statement of faith and aims.

All appointments are subject to the successful completion of a DBS check.
