About us:

Bolton is a family friendly city and has ranked as one of the happiest places to live in the Northwest. The town is in close proximity to both Manchester and Liverpool, under an hour from the Peak District, one hour from Leeds, under 2 hours from the Lake District and Snowdonia National Park in Wales. The cost of living is very attractive, especially for those keen to step on the property ladder, as residents enjoy a higher standard of living that would ordinarily cost much more in other parts of the UK. Those with school aged children can enjoy a good standard of education and access to some great Colleges and Universities in nearby cities.

To apply you will have good general nursing experience and great customer service skills, be cheerful, down-to-earth and enthusiastic with a genuine interest in animal welfare.
