How would you feel if you knew you would change lives and make a difference in someone's life experience?
As a Support Worker at Affinity Trust, you will make a difference every day, supporting people to live their best lives, giving them confidence and choice.
One day, it could be a trip to the supermarket, the next, supporting them in a new hobby. Your support means people can live more independently; in the way they choose. Ultimately, your support gives people the freedom to be themselves.
In this role, you’ll be supporting young adults aged 18–24 as they develop confidence, independence, and essential life skills for the future. Each person has their own interests and goals, from attending work or college to enjoying baking, crafts, Meccano, and a variety of home-based activities.
You’ll provide encouragement and support every step of the way, helping them build the skills and confidence needed to prepare for independent living and, ultimately, managing a tenancy of their own in the future.
We provide complete training to enable you to provide the best support you can to people living with learning disabilities, autism, or mental health needs.
However, we know that what is essential is your kindness, energy, and willingness to make someone's day brighter.

- Build trust, connection, and independence
