Make a difference by supporting people to live their life, their way

We are looking for a positive and enthusiastic Support Worker to join our team, supporting three wonderful ladies to live full and active lives. While previous experience is desirable, what matters most is your patience, encouragement, and willingness to get involved. One of the ladies has a vibrant and lively personality, so confidence and a calm approach are important. You will support them to enjoy their hobbies and interests, whether that’s visiting local farms, relaxing in cafés, joining community clubs, or going swimming. This is a great opportunity for someone with energy, compassion, and a real “get up and go” attitude who is passionate about making a difference every day.

We can teach you everything you need to know about supporting people well. What we can’t teach you, is the stuff that comes from within:

• That buzz you get when you celebrate someone’s wins – big or small.
• That natural sense of wanting to make someone’s day brighter.
• That understanding that climbing a mountain starts with a single step.

In essence, that’s what we are looking for from you.

What does it mean to be a support worker? Think about your daily routine and what matters to you. If you needed support to keep your day the way you like it, what would be important to you?

In this role, you will:

• Take time to understand what a great day means to the person you support.
• Adjust your approach to meet people’s needs and build on both their strengths and your own.
• Help build a supportive environment that encourages everyone to thrive and gives them the freedom to live their life their way.

Core Values

• Working together
• Respecting the strengths and differences of the people you work with
• Communicating openly and building trust.
• Helping each other to provide the best support possible.
• Giving our best
• Being dedicated to making a difference in people’s lives. Whether the day was easy or tough, taking responsibility for your actions and focusing on what matters most to those who you support.
• Having courage
• Being open to new ideas and approaches.
• Using creativity and flexibility to try different ways of helping others.
• Providing the most effective and adaptable support possible.

We’re committed to being Disability Confident and we guarantee to interview all applicants with a disability who meet the minimum criteria for the vacancy.
