“Step One is a rewarding place to work with a great friendly supportive team. A varied job that changes every day. One where you can go home at the end of the day and know you’ve made a difference.”
“Because of the nature of the patients we have, we get much more time with them in terms of direct contact. The other great thing that drew me in was the hours and flexibility to do longer days which means you get a really good work/life balance.”
“I’ve always felt very nervous about starting a new job in a new company. I dread the question coming up when I am inevitably asked about my boyfriend / husband. As a gay woman, I worry about telling new people for fear of how they will react. Even in this day and age, there is still a lot of negativity in the world. I love that working at Step One I have never been anything but supported, they embrace and champion you for being unapologetically yourself. I feel safe here to be me.”
“I thoroughly enjoy working with my team at Step One Charity, I feel totally accepted and know my colleagues embrace who I am.”
“Facilitating the peer support groups, leading the Men’s Wellbeing Walk and running courses and workshops for BeWell is an absolute privilege. I get to meet so many amazing people, and to be able to give and offer support and also listen and learn so much about myself in the process.”
