Paddock Trust

Who we are

Paddock Trust is a well-established charity based in Kirklees, dedicated to helping people overcome barriers and access opportunities that improve their lives. We work collaboratively with local authorities, employers, health services, education providers and community organisations to deliver services that respond to local need and create lasting change.

Our team is passionate about developing innovative, practical solutions that support individuals and strengthen communities. We pride ourselves on being approachable, responsive and outcomes-focused, building strong relationships that enable us to make a meaningful difference.

As we continue to grow and diversify our services, we remain committed to delivering high-quality support while exploring new opportunities to expand our reach and impact across the communities we serve.

Our culture and values

At Paddock Trust, we believe that people do their best work when they feel valued, supported and trusted. We've built a friendly and collaborative working environment where everyone's contribution matters and where colleagues are encouraged to share ideas, learn from one another and take pride in the difference they make.

We work together to find practical solutions, support each other through challenges and celebrate successes as a team. Openness, honesty and respect are important to us, both in the way we work with colleagues and in the relationships we build with participants, partners and local communities.

We are committed to providing high-quality services and continuously improving what we do. We welcome different experiences and perspectives, creating an inclusive workplace where people feel comfortable being themselves and confident that their voice will be heard.

Most importantly, we never lose sight of why we're here: to create opportunities, improve lives and make a positive contribution to the communities we serve.

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

At Paddock Trust, we are committed to creating a workplace where everyone is treated fairly, with dignity and respect. We recognise the value that different backgrounds, experiences and perspectives bring to our organisation and the communities we serve.

We want our workforce to reflect the diversity of the communities we work alongside. We therefore welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and are committed to providing equal opportunities in recruitment, training, development and progression.

We do not tolerate discrimination, harassment or victimisation in any form. Decisions relating to employment are made fairly and based on skills, experience and ability.

We are committed to creating an inclusive environment where people feel valued, supported and able to be themselves. If you require any reasonable adjustments during the recruitment process, we encourage you to let us know so that we can support you appropriately.
