Affordable housing, good schools, a vibrant city, beautiful countryside and an enviable coastline. What is there not to like about living and working in Norfolk?

If you decide to travel to the county by train, we can offer a car club to allow you to easily travel around the region.

You can join us as part of our community team in Kings Lynn holding your own caseload and supported by our friendly community team.

West Norfolk is an area of contrast and beauty situated close to the borders of Cambridgeshire and Lincolnshire and home to the town of Kings Lynn – a traditional fishing town with fine medieval merchant’s houses, Guildhall, Town Hall and Minster Church along with two traditional and historic marketplaces with fine Georgian and medieval architecture. It also has two marketplaces – Saturday and Tuesday. The area has 3 railway stations along with hourly trains on the mainline to Ely, Cambridge and London, making it a perfect location for easy travelling to and from the area.

Not only do we have the benefit of a beautiful location, we’re investing in social care and changing the conversation for social work to support people to be independent, resilient and well and provide better outcomes.
