"I have been working at The Lodge Trust for 5 years working both in the residential and social and therapeutic teams.  From the start, I knew that God had guided me to work at The Lodge Trust.  Since working here I have loved being able to talk about God and my faith to both residents and staff, and sharing my faith with them. I never thought I would have a job where I could do this and this is one of the reasons I love working at The Lodge Trust." - Alice
