Susan
Service Co-ordinator
Hi, I’m Susan. I’ve been working in Jane’s Place since June 2023 when we were in a temporary building waiting for our forever home in Denzille Lane. I’m delighted we’ve moved now and I love the new building. I started working in homeless services in 2009 but my passion has always been working with addiction. I trained as an Addiction Counsellor after my Social Care Degree, and 8 years after graduating as an Addiction Counsellor, I went on to study Counselling & Psychotherapy. I’ve worked in homeless & addiction services for 15 years now and love the kindness, generosity and resilience I see everyday between women in Jane’s Place. Have a look at our video above- I hope you see something you might like, and please come and check it out for yourself. This is your safe space to heal, hope, and be you!

Hi, I’m Orla, I am a Project worker here in Jane’s Place since October 2024. I have worked in addiction/homeless services for over 6 years. I have a background as a holistic therapist, providing and promoting the practice of mindfulness and self-care to be included as part of your care plan. I also have experience as an outreach worker, providing crisis intervention supports to people on the street as well as individuals that experience difficulty attending services. My role here in Jane’s Place will be to provide client centred support using a trauma informed approach in developing individualised care plan’s, a wide range of supports, provide information and advocacy. I hope that each of you feel at home here at Jane’s place, a friendly face to talk to, a nonjudgmental ear to be heard and to feel like you have been treated with the upmost respect and compassion but most of all to feel that this is your safe space.
