Aropa Care Group are seeking a Residential Support Worker on a permanent basis working in our 4-bed home in Aberdare. The home offers placements to young people between the ages of 8 to 17, who have social, emotional, behavioural difficulties.

We provide high quality homes for young people offering an atmosphere which promotes security, trust, fairness, and privacy for its young people within a safe and caring environment, so it is important that you are passionate about working with young people.

The home offers an environment with a person-centred approach to help young people regain the balance in their lives and prepare them for the next stage of their life, whether that is returning to their family, moving on to foster care or independent living.
