North Ormesby Road is a mental health supported housing service operating on a recovery model. We offer a range of support services including outreach, peer support, and supported housing for individuals aged 18 and upwards with mental health challenges.

We believe recovery looks different for everyone. With the right support at the right time, recovery is possible for all.

No prior experience is necessary as full training will be provided. Candidates with understanding of mental health issues or lived experience are welcomed. What matters most is your caring and compassionate nature, empathy, enthusiasm, ability to work independently and as part of a team, and willingness to participate in a weekly rota system and on-call duties.
