**A bit about the role**

Swansea Short Breaks allows children to enjoy a safe, meaningful experience and an opportunity has arisen for a Community Short Breaks Worker to join our dedicated, friendly, warm and professional team.

The Community Short Breaks Project provides support to children and young people with disabilities. This includes support to access community-based activities in small groups, activities at the project base or caring for a child in their own home (domiciliary care).

**How you'll help to create brighter futures**

Community Short Breaks Workers work directly with children and young people in this service. You will make a difference by:

- Maintaining a safe, stimulating, fun and caring environment, whilst supporting the young people to develop independence and social skills.
- Helping them access the onsite facilities, whilst accompanying them to activities and outings to nearby beaches and attractions.
- Managing case files for the young people and develop positive relationships with their families and other professionals
- Attending training, team meetings and take part in supervisions within the day.

- QCF Level 2 Health and Social Care or be willing to work towards this
- A commitment to working on a 24-hour shift rota pattern, which includes evenings, night working, weekends, and some bank holidays.
