Carer ( day centre)

*Please read the whole advert carefully before applying*

We are a small, local, non government funded, service user led charity looking for a caring, friendly, hard-working and committed individual to join our vibrant Day Centre team providing social based activities, personal care ( including hoisting) and support to adults with long term / incurable physical disabilities in particular those which are neurological.

Ideally you will have experience in care and an interest in arts and crafts, baking, mobility exercise and will be competent in assisting with organising and bringing forward ideas for our weekly activities according to what members would like to do, taking into account their varying capabilities.

We are looking to employ someone who will be with us long term, to ensure they get to know the members well and enable a smooth continuation of care.

We also require someone who is interested in or has an understanding of charity work, as although this is a paid job we would hope for support e.g. contributing extra time when it comes to arranging activities, fund raising, member visits etc.

Initially we would invite you to attend a session to meet all our wonderful members, staff and volunteers. Whilst you are with us, we would like you to arrange a 30 minute ( approximately) activity for the group taking into account the range of abilities of the members, visual / communication difficulties and mobility issues. If you are successful at this stage we will then invite you to an interview with the service manager and a trustee.

Hours will be Monday, Wednesday and Friday 09:30 to 16:00. Some set up/down time or staff cover may also be required. We currently operate from 2 different venues
