Ive been looking for a job for a while; decided that I would like something with regional travel which includes meeting people, perhaps people in need. I considered working for a housing association. Travelling and meeting tenants and people in need of emergency housing. But I have no experience in the industry, I am currently trying to organise some work experience for that.

I am posting to ask if anyone has any job titles or actual jobs which fit the criteria above. I am mainly looking to work in the south west but will also consider north west and perhaps London.

Please help a 'lost in the real world' soul, Don't want to be working in my current employment all my life. It makes me boring.

Social worker?
In reply to Nexonen:

I'm good with kids, but prefer to work with adults. Am I right in presuming a lot of social work is working with children?

A lot of it is. Sad to say Children and Families still tend to be the posts that need filled. However there is also Drug and Alcohol work and a Social Work degree can take you into management roles in the voluntary sector too. My wife trained as a Social Worker but has never worked the front line. She's currently on secondment to the Scottish Government!
