At present we have three exciting job vacancies to join our amazing team.

This is an exciting opportunity to join our small Cornish charity doing big things to support young people with physical disabilities in Cornwall.

We work with 14-30 year olds with physical disabilities to develop skills, confidence, support structures and aspirations through fun and sociable activities. We work with our members to challenge the status quo and to be catalysts for improvement in their own quality of life through varied advocacy work. We achieve great things for the young people we work with, and the fundraising role is vital to ensure we can continue to do so.   

Due to the success of recent fundraising efforts we have secured long term funding to be able to offer these roles.
