Our Opportunity for you:

Are you passionate about making a positive impact on the lives of individuals with learning disabilities? Do you thrive in a supportive and compassionate environment? If so, we have an exciting opportunity for you

We are currently seeking a dedicated and empathetic Support Worker to join our dynamic team within the healthcare sector. As a Support Worker, you will play a crucial role in providing exceptional care and support to individuals with learning disabilities, enabling them to lead fulfilling and independent lives.

Where you will work: Hillcrest Cottages:

Comprising six well-appointed one and two-bedroom cottages, Hillcrest Cottages provides a safe environment for adults who may find larger, mixed-use developments too challenging, but who need the support of 24-hour staffing. Generous space, both inside and around the property, along with the use of the neighbouring care home facilities, allows each service user greater independence and the opportunity to develop life skills.

Each house is disability-friendly, with step-free access and further personalisation can be made following an assessment of individual requirements. Residents have personal gardens in each home, as well as a kitchen, and living and dining rooms that are either private or shared with one other resident. The homes are also protected by modern security and safety technology.

The homes are located on Thimbleby Road, moments away from Horncastle's high street, a mosaic of antique shops, galleries, and award-winning dining spots. Known for its vibrant weekly and monthly farmers' markets, Horncastle is where history meets modernity. And, for the nature aficionados, the expansive Lincolnshire Wolds, designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, offer an undulating canvas of nature's finest.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Delivering person-centred care and support to individuals with learning disabilities, ensuring their physical, emotional, and social needs are met.
  • Assisting individuals with daily living activities, including personal care, meal preparation, and medication administration.
  • Promoting independence and empowering individuals to develop essential life skills.
  • Building strong relationships with service users, their families, and other healthcare professionals to ensure a holistic approach to care.
  • Supporting individuals in accessing educational, vocational, and recreational activities within the community.
  • Maintaining accurate and up-to-date records of care plans and progress reports.

Requirements:

  • Previous experience working with individuals with learning disabilities is highly desirable.
  • A compassionate and patient nature, with excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Ability to work effectively as part of a team, as well as independently.
  • Flexibility to work various shifts, including evenings, weekends, and bank holidays.
  • A genuine passion for improving the lives of individuals with learning disabilities.

What we offer:

  • Competitive salary and benefits package.
  • A Salary increase once you have completed our paid for care certificate (An industry-recognised qualification)
  • Hastee Pay – withdraw up to 40% of your earned salary before payday as when you want
  • Comprehensive training and development opportunities to enhance your skills and career progression.
  • 29 holidays (including your birthday off) plus length of service bonus holidays
  • Quarterly Awards to reward & recognise our amazing staff's commitment and contribution and service performance related bonuses
  • Automatic entry into our Employee Assistance Programme offering: Personal and everyday advice on child support, financial advice, mental health and health & wellbeing
  • You'll also receive our pension & life assurance cover
  • Free Blue Light Card
  • A supportive and inclusive working environment, where your contributions are valued and recognized.
  • The opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of individuals with learning disabilities.

If you are looking for a rewarding and fulfilling career within the healthcare sector, then we would love to hear from you. Apply now to join our dedicated team as a Support Worker and help us make a positive impact on the lives of individuals with learning disabilities.


With the right training and support, you can help us to promote independence, choice, and inclusion. Every day you will make an invaluable contribution to the lives of people living with learning disabilities and will become more than just their support worker, you will become their companion too.
