We have an exciting opportunity for a Support Worker to join our enthusiastic and devoted team of people based in Gorseinon, Swansea.

The service is made up of 8 flats with an individual living in each one. This is a supported living scheme designed to help individuals to enhance their independence skills in order for them to live independently within the community. Each individual has different interests and hobbies which they do on a daily basis. The people we support are also encouraged to have jobs within the community whether it's payed or voluntary and 6 out 8 already achieved this outcome and will continue to progress. **Please note: Due to the requirements of the individuals we support, a full UK Driving Licence is needed for this role.**

- You will be studying towards your QCF Level 2 Health and Social Care funded by mirus
- You will work alongside other professionals such as care managers, community nurses and occupational therapists to deliver high quality support.

**What we are looking for**:
You may understand the issues associated with people with complex needs, but we will provide in depth training and coaching. Being a Support Worker takes bravery, patience, and commitment. If you share our values and are willing to make a difference, we'd love to hear from you
