Also, which day you would be available to attend a pre-course interview. We are looking for candidates who are interested in supporting clients face to face, over the telephone, online and are also planning to start support groups and new friendship groups in some areas in the near future. In some areas we support clients in our counselling rooms, and in other areas we see clients in their own homes.
