Short profile:
Norcare is a Charity and Company Limited by guarantee providing a range of support services and accommodation for people aged 16 and over who are currently socially and economically excluded.
Norcare is a North East charity that has been helping some of the region’s most vulnerable people since 1984.
Working with and supporting people aged 16 and over who are homeless and socially or economically excluded, we help them find the right kind of home, address any issues they may be facing, and develop the confidence and skills they need to lead happy independent lives.
At Norcare we do our utmost to support our clients in every way we can, helping them confront and resolve any issues and gain the skills and confidence they need to move on with their lives.
Detailed description:
Norcare was set up in 1984 in response to a call from The Probation Service that offenders released from prison were ending up on the streets and were subsequently at risk of re-offending.
Since then Norcare has expanded to provide housing support and a whole range of other services for some of the most vulnerable groups of society including those suffering alcohol or drug addiction, those with mental health issues and victims of domestic violence.
We recognise that many of these issues are interlinked and Norcare has become a lifeline for a whole range of people in need.
The experience, expertise and commitment of our staff have helped Norcare develop into an organisation that is both caring and innovative in its approach.
Norcare has four times been voted one of the ‘Best Small Companies to Work For’ in the Sunday Times list, and we are continuing to work to make sure Norcare is a better place to be for our staff as well as our clients.
The people we help are at the heart of what we do. We understand that what works for one person might not work for another, which is why we develop a personalised package of support with every client to give them the specific help they need.
The range of services we offer, coupled with our experienced yet sensitive approach makes Norcare a better place to be for everyone.
Every client who comes to Norcare is made The Norcare Promise. This is the name given to the comprehensive package of support that we offer our clients. They can pick and choose the services they want to access and we work with them to develop a personalised support programme to match their needs and aspirations.
Recognising that a safe and stable home can form the bedrock of a happy life, our primary focus is on finding the right kind of housing for our clients. We offer a range of supported accommodation as well as helping clients secure independent tenancies.
