Why work for P3?

P3 work alongside people all across the UK, to enable them to create change in their own lives. We specialise in homelessness services, supported housing, services for people recovering from mental ill-health, community-based advice and support and young people’s services to name just a few.
 
We are a ‘people first’ organisation and our mission is to work alongside people to improve lives and communities, to unlock potential and open new possibilities. We know the work we do does make a real and lasting difference and we are committed to addressing challenges that others won’t.
