We are looking to recruit passionate Relief Support Workers to join our dedicated team of support staff.

Do you want to make a positive difference to people’s lives?  

We are recruiting for our service supporting adults that have learning disabilities. The people we support all have different needs, some need support with personal care and they all need support with medication, cooking, shopping and housework/laundry. They all enjoy accessing the community and going out and about where possible.

It is a busy service with lots to do but the rewards are worth it when you see the smile on the faces on those you have helped make a difference in their day.

• Personal care - helping people to get ready for the day and assisting with bathing, showering and using the bathroom.
• Supporting people to live independently – budget management, paying bills, housework, organising appointments and cooking delicious healthy meals.
• Excellent communication skills/relationship building – supporting the person to understand the world around them and promoting positive relationships.
