About Community Integrated Care

Community Integrated Care is one of the UK’s largest health and social care charities. We transform lives by delivering high-quality, person-centred support that fosters independence and empowerment.

Our charity was founded in 1988 and we were one of the pioneers of the ‘Care in the Community’ agenda, enabling people to move out of long-stay institutions and live more fulfilling lives.

Since then, we’ve remained leaders in social care, providing bespoke support to thousands across the UK. Today, we support more than 2,600 people and employ 6,600 caring and committed colleagues across England and Scotland.

Our mission & strategy

We're a multi-award winning charity that exists to ensure our colleagues and the people we support live the best lives possible. In 2025, we launched our new strategy - Our Best Lives, Bolder Strategy

We have a proud history of breaking boundaries and are always looking for new ways to make a positive difference through bold ideas, innovative projects and impactful partnerships.

Who you'll be supporting & more about the role

You’ll be supporting a small group of individuals who live independently in their own flats, while also being part of a close‑knit and supportive community.

Each person has their own personality, interests and routines, but they all share something in common — they enjoy spending time together, looking out for one another, and making the most of everyday life. Whether it’s a trip out for coffee and cake, a walk in the countryside, a pamper day at home, or simply relaxing together, there’s always something going on.

Life here is all about balance — supporting independence while being there when it matters most. You’ll be helping people with their day‑to‑day lives, which may include personal care, medication, supporting emotional wellbeing, communication needs, and providing reassurance during more challenging moments. Some individuals may need support with mobility, behaviours of concern, or epilepsy‑related needs, so being calm, patient and confident is key.

The environment is lively and varied. Some people are out during the day, for example attending college, while others enjoy staying at home or heading out into the community. There’s a shared garden space where everyone can relax, with things like a trampoline and paddling pool adding to the fun in warmer months.

Being able to drive (with a full UK driving licence) is essential, as many of the people we support enjoy getting out and about using their cars to explore the local area, which includes shops, cafés and community spaces — all part of a friendly Broadstone neighbourhood.

You’ll be working as part of a team where every person receives 1:1 support, allowing you to build strong, meaningful relationships and truly understand the people you support.

What you'll be doing

• Supporting people with daily routines and independence
• Building meaningful, trusting relationships
• Supporting with personal care, medication and wellbeing
• Encouraging community access and activities
• Responding calmly to changing needs and behaviours
• Promoting dignity, choice and person-centred support

About you

What we're looking for

• Caring, patient and respectful
• A great communicator who builds strong relationships
• Calm and confident, especially in challenging moments
• Positive, proactive and willing to get involved
• Reliable with a strong work ethic

Experience is helpful but not essential — we recruit for values and will provide full training.

Most importantly, you’ll understand that great support is about building relationships, encouraging independence, and helping people live life their way.
