Yoker Resource Centre aims to assist individuals that are elderly or have mild physical disability to maintain the ability to stay in their own homes.

In doing so you will be enabling service users to participate in a wide range of community social, recreational, and educational activities. You will liaise with established partner agencies and services that will support and improve their quality of life and therefore maintain their ability to live independently.

Applicants are invited from those with leadership skills and hold a caring and genuine commitment to understanding and working closely with people who are elderly or suffer mild disability.
