Our colleagues build close bonds with the people they care for, helping to create enduring, positive relationships that build confidence and self-esteem.

In every Choice Care home there’s a strong emphasis on living life to the full and having fun, with purposeful daily activities based on individual preferences and capabilities. Alongside this there are regular social events, projects, outings and holiday breaks which everyone can get involved in and express themselves through.

Where will you work?

Hurst House is a large, detached home in Swindon, two miles from the town centre. It supports up to 10 middle-aged and older men and women with learning disabilities, autism and associated complex needs. The residents enjoy a range of educational and leisure activities, including arts and crafts, music lessons and walks, as well as social events with a second Choice Care home close by. There is easy access to public transport, and the home has its own vehicle for local leisure, recreational and educational trips and activities in the community.
