Westwood is a sunny, bright and well-maintained home with a warm and supportive atmosphere. You’ll be part of a friendly team, with the backing of the wider Hastings and Bexhill Mencap organisation.

What We’re Looking For

We are looking for people who are:

• Kind, patient and dependable

• Positive and team-focused

• Willing to learn

• Passionate about supporting people to live fulfilling lives
