Not only will you help shape a warm, supportive and happy home for these young men, but you'll also have the chance to make a genuine and lasting difference during a hugely important stage of their lives. Each gentleman has a learning disability and autism and is beginning a new chapter focused on growing independence, building confidence, developing daily living skills and achieving personal goals. As a Support Worker, you'll be there to encourage, guide and champion them every step of the way. This role is about far more than providing support - it's about helping people thrive. Whether that's supporting someone to learn a new skill, build routines in their new home, access their community, develop friendships or simply gain the confidence to try something new, every day will bring opportunities to make meaningful moments happen.

• Supporting with routines and daily living skills
• Encouraging independence at a pace suited to each person
• Supporting communication and emotional reassurance
• Helping plan activities and community involvement
• Supporting with cooking, meals and appointments
• Celebrating achievements big and small

You'll be patient, positive, reliable and compassionate, with a genuine passion for helping people live the lives they choose. Experience in care or support work is helpful, but it isn't essential - what matters most is your attitude, enthusiasm and values.
