Details

Corlann draws inspiration from cor, the Latin word for heart, and lann, the Irish word for place. Together, they express a powerful idea: that heart is at the centre of everything we do, and that our purpose is to create a place of belonging for every person we support. Corlann symbolises our determination to shape a vibrant, progressive future for our services, and to advocate tirelessly so that the people we support can shape their own lives. Our name embodies our ethos, our culture, and the foundation on which we continue to grow.

Corlann provides services to more than 6,000 people each year who have an intellectual disability, including those who also have autism.

Our aim is always to provide, as far as possible, personalised supports that empower people to identify and achieve their own life goals, and to live as valued, equal, and active citizens in their communities.

Working with Corlann means you will be joining an organisation that supports people with intellectual disabilities to be valued citizens in their local community, to have ordinary life experiences and to be closely connected to family and friends.

We require bright ambitious individuals who have a positive attitude towards working with persons with an intellectual disability and who are committed to ensuring that our persons supported lead as normal and enjoyable a life as possible.
