- Location:Northiam, Rye, East Sussex
- Hourly rate:£12.70 per hour
- Hours per week:Part time (15-30 hrs)
- Training Provided:Full training provided. Opportunities to complete an NVQ Level 2 in Health & Social Care
- Required:The ability to get to this location, as hard to reach using public transport.

Supporting people to live great lives
At Affinity Trust, we empower people to lead meaningful lives on their own terms. As a support worker, you will play a key role in promoting independence and building social connections. Your support will make a real difference in their lives.
Who will I support?
You’ll be joining our wonderful team, supporting individuals with learning disabilities as they move back into their newly refurbished supported living home in Northiam.
In this rewarding role, you’ll help people enjoy the activities they love—whether it’s dining out, shopping, dancing at the disco, taking long countryside walks, or spending quality time at home. You’ll also have the chance to support them in their newly adapted kitchen with baking and cooking, or simply relaxing together in the garden.
People may need support with areas of their personal care and well-being, support to take medication or help getting around and your role is to empower and connect, help them navigate life with confidence and independence.
You will need to be able to work shifts flexibly across the week, including some weekends and some sleep-in shifts.
Being a driver and willing to drive people's vehicles would be an advantage, but the ability to get to this location as early as 7am and finishing again at 10pm though is essential, as this home is hard to reach using public transport.

Stream – an app that gives you access to a percentage of your pay as you earn it, access to coaching, vouchers, discounts, cashback and more.
Blue light card – we will reimburse your Blue Light Card membership which provides discounts in your favourite shops and restaurants.
Simply Health - Fully funded health cash plans giving you access to a 24-hour GP, money back on prescriptions, dental treatment, opticians and access to many more health benefits.
Vivup – spread the cost of home and electronics items, or a bike to cycle to work through fixed salary reductions throughout the year.
Buy and sell annual leave – transfer windows open twice a year.
Pension and Life Assurance - you’ll be enrolled into our Scottish Widows pension scheme and Life Assurance scheme.
Please note that we are actively shortlisting candidates throughout the duration of the advert, interviews will be held as soon as possible and we will make an offer immediately if we find the right candidate.

Job Introduction
Support Worker
Location: Truro
Salary: £12.64 – £12.92 + £60 per sleep-in shift
Hours: Flexible shifts on a 24/7 rota (planned in advance)
About the role
As a Support Worker at Brandon Trust, you’ll be part of something meaningful—supporting autistic people and people with learning disabilities to live life in the way that suits them best. Whether it’s helping someone pursue a new hobby, build routines, plan a trip, attend their work, maintain their house or simply enjoy their day, you’ll be working alongside them to make it happen.
You’ll support with day-to-day activities like shopping, cooking, and managing health needs—always led by the person’s own preferences and goals.
You’ll also support with personal care. This means helping people with washing, dressing, and other essential personal routines. It’s a vital part of enabling people to live with dignity, choice, and independence. Personal care is always delivered in a respectful and person-centred way, in line with each individual's needs and preferences.
No two days are the same, and every day brings the opportunity to be part of someone’s progress and independence.
Why this role matters
You’ll be joining people on their own journeys—whether that’s growing in confidence, building friendships, or trying something new. You’ll see the real impact of your support and share in the everyday moments that matter most.
This is work with purpose. You’ll be part of a supportive team that values respect, individuality, and connection.
What we’re looking for
- A kind and thoughtful approach rooted in empathy and respect
- A genuine interest in other people’s lives, routines, and goals
- Strong communication skills and the ability to work well in a team
- A positive attitude and a willingness to learn
- A commitment to inclusion and celebrating what makes each person unique
- A full UK driving licence
No experience? That’s okay.
Your values and behaviours matter more than your background. If you're someone who listens well, treats others with respect, and genuinely wants to support people to live their lives, we’ll provide everything you need to succeed. With full training, ongoing support, and development opportunities, you’ll be supported every step of the way.
About us
Brandon Trust is a charity supporting people with learning disabilities and autism to live life to the full. We work alongside people to help them make choices, be heard, and thrive in their communities.
We’re committed to building a diverse team and an inclusive workplace. If you need any adjustments during the application or interview process, just let us know—we’re here to support you too.
