This is an exciting time to join Bridgend CBC as we continue to remodel the way we meet the needs of children and young people who need our support.

The homes provide placements of varying lengths to children/young people in the age range 7 to 18 years (at the time of admission) who (for whatever reason) cannot live with their own immediate or extended family.

As a Children's Residential Worker, you will be supported to access a range of training to help you fulfil the role.

Assist children/young people to explore their own issues and experiences and work through any emotions and feelings which may become a barrier to a stable placement and future accommodation.


Provide appropriate levels of support that recognise, value, and encourage children/young people to maintain personal skills and competencies and promote their confidence and self-esteem.


Provide a comprehensive package of educational support to promote the best possible outcomes for children/young people within their educational setting.


Work closely with families or substitute families to ensure that when children/young people return home or go to other suitable placements, adequate support via a transition plan is given to both the young person and their family to ensure success.


Provide age-appropriate independent living programmes to assist young people to be able to develop the necessary skills to enable them to, if appropriate, live independently.
