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?


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 travel or holiday 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.

There are many responsibilities of a support worker, providing physical and emotional support being one of them.

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.


Covering leave, training and sickness with hours that fit in with life's other commitments, a casual support worker role is an ideal way of discovering that this could be the career for you.

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.
