We have a growing Occupational Therapy Service within the Transition Team which continues to develop and implement innovative ideas.

Our interventions and support are focused on supporting young adults aged 18-25 to achieve their aspirations, goals and improve their quality of life.

You will be visiting young people in their own homes, in supported living accommodations and care homes and in educational establishments, including colleges and universities.

You will provide advice and support to both young adults, their family carers and independent support providers - often enabling them to move on to a more independent lifestyle.

We invest in Surrey's "grow your own" apprenticeship scheme and consistently have students and apprentices. You will have an opportunity to supervise trainee's and engage in reflective supervision.
We also invest in you and your career development.

We have specialist mandatory training with agreed funding to support your developing clinical knowledge, alongside in house regular CPD sessions and leadership development.
