Sounds great, what will I be doing?
You will be providing day‑to‑day personalised care in line with support plans, helping service users engage in education, leisure and health activities while encouraging independence, including with medication. You will contribute to planning and reviewing support plans, promote wellbeing and safety, maintain accurate records, and support housing management, risk assessments and health and safety standards.

You will be comfortable cooking, cleaning and offering personal care, and you'll work flexibly within a rota that includes evenings, weekends and sleep‑ins. You will motivate service users toward independence, travel across services when needed, and maintain a strong service‑user‑focused approach. You will have good literacy, numeracy and IT skills, understand safeguarding responsibilities, and demonstrate a clear commitment to equality, diversity and inclusive practice
