We are passionate about the provision of creative and ambitious opportunities for our young people. Our services are well regarded, and we are proud of our reputation of ensuring the best outcomes for children with disabilities.

Our teams work hard to improve the lives of the children and young people with disabilities in our care. Within our services we have a specialist emergency and time limited residential home, two short break homes and an outreach team which involves working directly with children and families within their own homes.

We are looking to add to our teams on a casual basis to help cover any staffing needs. You may be offered work in any of these services: Springwood or Foxwood in Sprowston, Norwich, Marshfields in King's Lynn or with the CWD Outreach Team who work across the county.

We need highly motivated, resilient and positive team members with the tenacity and empathy to help children and young people with disabilities thrive and reach their full potential.

As a Children's Disability Practitioner, you will provide meaningful day to day activities to children and young people with disabilities to develop their emotional and social needs by building positive relationships and to enhance independence skills. You will provide personal intimate care such as feeding, washing, toileting, dressing, hoisting, administering medication and also health care tasks and duties that can be met through appropriate training and delegation of clinical procedures in line with the 2005 Royal College of Nursing Guidelines.

You may be new to the care profession or experienced and want a change. What is important is the ability to form effective relationships with children with disabilities, your life experiences, personal strength, and positive attitude. You will receive a full induction and training programme and will hold or be willing to work towards the Level 3 Diploma for Residential Child Care, which we will fund.

Our teams work across the whole week (including weekends and bank holidays) and can include unsociable hours, night work, sleep ins and also being part of the on-call rota system.

This is a great opportunity to develop your skills within the sector and work in collaboration directly with families and other professionals to ensure best outcomes for children and young people with disabilities.
