Right now, we've got 4 men and 8 women living with us, mostly needing 2 to 1 support, with some requiring 3 to 1.

• Autism / Learning disabilities
• Physical disabilities
• Dementia
• Behaviours that challenge

No two days are the same, but you'll be:

• Supporting people to live independently and enjoy their everyday activities
• Encouraging social connections with family, friends, and the local community
• Helping out with finances, household tasks, and shopping
• Providing respectful, person-centred personal care
• Most importantly – creating those brilliant moments of joy and achievement!

What's in it for you?

• Early Pay – get your hands on your earnings before payday
• Fully paid, enhanced DBS
• Flexible working patterns

• Loads of training and opportunities to progress your career
