We are delighted that you are interested in working with us at The National House Project.
All our staff and trustees are passionately committed to making a difference to the lives of young people leaving care. Our working culture is supportive, innovative, and friendly. We aim to improve the wider leaving care services and develop an expert care experienced user voice to change the narrative about care leavers and ensure that they are making decisions about their lives and their projects. We actively encourage approaches from people of different ages, physical ability, sexual orientation, race and religious belief and those with care experience.
Values and Behaviours.
At NHP we are committed to doing the right thing and believe that with the right support young people can succeed. We are driven by individual and collective values that we at times refer to as the ‘House Project spirit’ and that our social pedagogy colleagues would refer to as our Haltung.
