AtSeeAbility, we support people with learning disabilities, autism and sight loss to live the lives they choose, and every day, you can see the difference your support makes.

When you join us, you’re not just taking a job. You’re joining a values‑led team where people look out for one another and take pride in what they do.

Is This You?

Do you stay calm when things take time? Can you explain information clearly and more than once if needed? Do you value routine, structure and helping others feel safe and confident?

We welcome applications from people at all levels — whether you’re new to social care or have lots of experience. This is a physical, hands‑on role, and to succeed you’ll have:

• Good spoken and written English
• A full UK manual driving licence
• The right to live and work in the UK
• A practical, active approach to work, with the ability to support people throughout the day
• A caring, positive and resilient mindset

If you genuinely care about people, we can teach you the rest.

How Will You Make a Difference?

As a Support Worker, you’ll help people live fuller, more independent lives by:

• Supporting daily routines from morning to bedtime
• Planning and enjoying person‑centred activities — walks, swimming, shopping and trips out
• Building trusted, respectful relationships that support confidence and wellbeing
• Keeping clear and accurate records
• Working closely with colleagues and professionals

This is a role where building strong relationships is just as important as providing practical support.
