Job Introduction
We’re all about possibilities. Are you?
Are you an outgoing person that loves to get stuck into lots of activities from day trips, holidays and meals out?
And patience. Do you have patience and empathy?
Become a Support Worker.
What matters to the people we support matters to us. It’s their life, their way.
You will be working with 3 people who live in a shared bungalow in Leicester (LE4). So, it’s important you can connect, share interests and be interested. They enjoy lots of activities in the community, bowling, cinema, going to the theatre and shopping to name a few! Back at home, they love to watch films and get stuck into arts and craft projects. This role will involve a real hands-on approach as you will be supporting people to maintain their health and wellbeing.
You should be available to work a variety of shifts across the week and alternate weekends, between the hours of 7am- 10pm.
If you enjoy building meaningful relationships and think you could plan, communicate and deliver support with and alongside people, then this is the place for you.
Ability to commute/relocate: LE4 - You must be able to reliably commute for shift start times or plan to relocate before starting work (required).
Gender is considered to be a genuine occupational requirement in accordance with paragraph 1 of Schedule 9 of the Equality Act 2010.
What will we do?
Supporting people is really important but it’s not all trips out and artwork. We also support people to take their medication, make healthy lifestyle choices or maintain their home in a way they are safe and well.
It sounds exciting to say no two days will be the same, but in support, sometimes they are. Sometimes people like routine and struggle with change… But when you support someone to try something new – what a feeling!
If you want to empower people to live the life they choose and you share our values… Apply to become a Support Worker today.
