#Care to join us?
We are looking for
Support Workers to join our friendly and welcoming team here at Hft. This is your chance to make a real difference to people's lives.

  • Experience is not essential_ as we provide all the training you need to be a confident support worker. Whether you are an experienced professional or completely new to the world of care, we want you to be a compassionate and friendly individual, who shares our Values.


What matters most is a positive attitude to life and a desire to support people to live their life with as much independence, choice, dignity and control as possible.

You will need to have good listening skills and a practical, caring approach.

Basic computer literacy is a necessity, as the role requires you to retrieve and record information using a variety of IT systems.


What will you be doing?
Kingsway is a small supported living service currently supporting three gentlemen.

The three gentlemen who live at Kingsway are very settled in where they live and frequently access the community, going to the local high street or into town almost daily.

They also enjoy activities at home such as tending to their small garden, playing board games and playing music. Kingsway is a lovely tight-knit group of people who are looking to welcome a new member to the team.


The purpose of your role is to give the highest possible standards of support to individuals with moderate to severe learning disabilities.


This can range from supporting them to discover new interests, reaching goals like travelling or holidays and working positively with their families and friends.

This will help individuals to engage in different leisure, home or work-related activities, all according to their personal choice.

As a support worker, your responsibilities are varied and no two days are the same.


As well as providing physical and emotional support you may be needed to help with household tasks and personal care as well as supporting individuals with healthcare needs, e.g.

taking medication.


Everything you do will enable people to have choices about their own lives, providing flexible services that meet people's needs, and always looking for the best way of doing things.


We provide 24/7 support to some people, so you will need to have flexibility to work shifts, including sleep in nights, weekends and bank holidays.


What's in it for you?
There are a range of benefits and career development opportunities at Hft. We'll give you a comprehensive induction, full training, and support along the way.


If you do not already have a relevant qualification in Health and Social Care, Hft will fully fund and provide training for you to obtain your Diploma in a Health and Social Care within the first 18 months of your employment.


With Skills for Care accreditation we are committed to investing in you to ensure you have the specialist skills and expertise needed to support people to live the best life possible.

As a 'Gold' standard Investors in People accredited employer, we are committed to supporting colleague wellbeing as a priority.

Within this, all Hft employees get access to the LifeWorks - the world's biggest 24/7 colleague counselling and support service.
