The Penthouse and Crows Nest services, in Whitby, are situated within the old Coliseum and located in this idyllic part of North Yorkshire boasting views across the harbour. Rail and bus services are situated only yards away from the Coliseum.

The Penthouse Service is supported accommodation for 9 adults with a learning disability, some of whom have mental health issues.
The Crows Nest Service is also situated in the Coliseum with supported accommodation for 2 adults with a learning disability.

The team works across both schemes and undertake some outreach work.
You will provide person-centred care and support to tenants to take part in all aspects of everyday life and to enjoy a wide range of activities.
