LEAP Services supports children and young people in need, with the aim to empower independence, ambition, and positive relationships.

**About the role**
LEAP provides a rewarding experience to mentor and support children and young people. LEAP prides itself on putting a focus on relationships so when workers come on board, we want to get to know your interests and skills so that we can match up your personality with appropriate children/young people that you will enjoy supporting.
