- Financial grants are now available for those individuals who are new to, or are returning to the care sector to support with costs of travel, training expenses or childcare (conditions apply, the scheme is provided by the Care Workers Charity)”

**ABOUT YOU**

If you’ve worked in care before, then that’s great as you’ll have a good idea of what to expect. But if care as a profession is new to you, then don’t worry - we’ll provide all the training you need to start your care journey with us, all delivered in a nurturing, engaging and rewarding environment.

What’s more important to us is that you’re good at communicating with people, you enjoy working as part of a team, you’ll be keen to learn and will want to excel at your job every day.
