Job description
Are you an experienced Personal Assistant / Support Worker looking for a new role that is rewarding and provides a sense of satisfaction? Would you like to provide support to a young boy to enable his to live life to the full? If the answer to these questions are 'yes', then a role with My Life Legacy could be for you

About us

My Life is a highly respected charity and we are currently seeking an experienced Personal Assistant / Support Worker to work with our young client in his home in Bury.

My Life was established in 2012 as a result of a group of people with disabilities and their families wanting something different to traditional types of health/social care services and wanting more choice and control over their own lives.

My Life currently provides care and support to a growing number of individuals who have complex health and/or social care needs across the Northwest of England.

Our staff are integral to the success of the charity as they are the ones making a real difference to people's lives.

What you'll need to Succeed

In order to succeed, you will be kind-hearted and interested in making a positive difference to this young boy's life.

You will have experience working as a Personal Assistant and/or Support Worker and you will have supported young people with a range of support needs.

You will be self-motivated, flexible and have the ability to use your own initiative whilst being caring and sensitive to the needs of others.

Ideally you will be experienced in supporting people who are PEG fed but full training will be given. You will hold a full driving licence.

The role will be to provide support from Monday to Friday and an 8 hour shift every other Saturday.

As part of the My Life team, you will ensure that care is provided in a way that respects this young person and promotes his independence.

What you'll get in return
In return, you will have the opportunity to make a real difference to the young boy you will be supporting whilst benefiting from the following:
  • * Full induction/training
  • Paid shadowing with experienced staff members
  • Regular refresher training
  • On-going continuing personal development including gaining qualifications if you choose to
  • A regular shift pattern
  • Blue Light Card offering hundreds of discounts
* £200 refer a friend bonus scheme

You will be paid up to between £14.00 to £15.12 per hour depending upon experience.

Due to the high volume of applications received, please note only suitable candidates will be contacted.


My Life is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.

Those working for My Life will need to undertake an Enhanced Disclosure via the DBS and/or provide police checks from other countries, where appropriate.

My Life is an equal opportunities employer.
