About Us
Caritas Diocese of Salford is the principal social action agency of the Catholic Diocese. Our mission is to put Love Into Action. We help those across Greater Manchester and Lancashire experiencing poverty, disadvantage, and discrimination to transform their lives with dignity. We provide a practical response to those in crisis, suffering hardship or who are at risk. We rebuild lives for the long-term, enabling people to live in a safe, healthy, and secure environment. We call for a better, more just world, where the voices of the poor are heard and acted upon and positively influence the systems, decisions and resources that affect those in need.
About the job
We are advertising for a Bank Support Worker to work a variety of shifts at our Young Parents’ Accommodation in Blackburn which provides a high standard of housing management that delivers a safe and supported environment for young parents and their babies.

The role involves supporting young parents to look after the health and development of themselves and their babies, as well as working positively with other professionals and agencies.
