Have you ever considered the difference a smile can make? Taking the time to listen, understand, and empower someone to make their own choices can have a huge impact. As a Support Worker, it’s about helping people live their best lives - in the ways they choose to.

At Affinity Trust, what matters most is your compassion and willingness to make a difference. Every day offers the chance to learn, grow, and see the real impact of your support in the lives of people around you.

You will be supporting a gentleman who has a big personality and a great sense of humour. He values people who are patient, resilient, and able to take things in their stride, including the occasional strong language. He takes real pride in his appearance and his car, enjoys getting out and about, and likes to relax with TV when it suits him. Music is important to him, with a preference for classic artists such as Johnny Cash and Boxcar Willie. Maintaining connections with his family is also important, and he will need support to do this. A good sense of humour is essential in this role, along with an understanding that no two days are the same. You will need to have a full UK manual driving license for this role.

Joining Affinity Trust means you'll be with caring colleagues, gain hands-on training that helps you grow into the role, and discover that what you do each day matters.

Joining us as a Support Worker gives you:

• Meaningful connections that make a difference every day


• Shared experiences of happiness and growth in the people you support
