Partnership and Inclusion Manager - Norfolk & Suffolk Victims Service in Norwich

Company Description

Catch22 exists to help build a society where everyone has a good place to live, good people around them, and a fulfilling purpose. We call these our '3Ps'. We achieve this in two ways. First, we improve lives on the frontline through delivery of public services. Secondly, we use our knowledge to change 'the system', to fix the complex web that can trap and disempower those it was set up to help.

Catch22 Victim Services provide tailored support to individuals to empower them to cope and recover from the impact of crime.
