Job Details: Case Worker - Dependency and Recovery
Waythrough launched in October 2024 following the merger of Humankind and Richmond Fellowship. Our vision is to break down barriers that prevent people from accessing support to live a valued life. We address poverty and disadvantage through mental health, drug and alcohol support, housing, and related services.
We operate nearly 200 services across England with almost 3,500 staff and volunteers, supporting around 125,000 people annually.
As we integrate our systems and processes following the merger, some branding may still reflect 'Humankind'. We appreciate your patience during this transition.
