The buildings are owned by Notting Hill Genesis, and the successful applicant will be required to take over day-to-day management of the building. The service is intended to be low support service, supporting looked after children who are moving from private semi-independent living provision, residential or foster care, or those who have recently been made looked after; and helping them to gain the skills and experience they will need to reach adulthood and live independently.
