Who will you be supporting?
three wonderfully unique individuals, each bringing our own sparkle to life. With ages ranging from 54 to 77, we embrace “the mature years” with a twinkle in our eyes and a zest for laughter, joy, and connection.

Our health and wellbeing are cared for with dignity and expertise, including SALT and PEG nutritional support, pressure care mattresses, and mobility aids such as hoists, overhead tracking, profiling beds, and staff-assisted wheelchairs.

From the magic of the theatre and the thrill of the cinema to dining out, local strolls, and adventures further afield using Merseylink transport — we love to explore and experience the world around us. Our passions include music of all kinds: the drama of opera, the nostalgia of the 80s, the timeless charm of ABBA and Elvis. We also enjoy crime dramas, musicals, Disney classics, and the grace and beauty of horses.
We thrive on attention, inclusion, and involvement. Visitors are always welcome — we love meeting new people and sharing our stories. Our ideal staff are caring, respectful, and full of life. A love of music, a sense of purpose, and the drive to bring fresh ideas and opportunities are qualities we truly value.
Here, every day is a chance to celebrate who we are, explore what we love, and enjoy the journey together

Job Introduction
This position does not meet the requirements for sponsorship under current UK immigration guidelines.
At Turning Point, we support people with Learning Disabilities across England.

We endeavour to create positive family and professional relationships offering a good circle of support. There is a strong focus on supporting individuals' lives in a person centred way which includes promoting choice, demonstrating respect and maintaining health. We tailor our services to enable people to be as independent as possible.

- ensuring record keeping is maintained to the required standard at all times and contributing to service monitoring requirements using a digital recording system.

- flexible, patient and non-judgemental
- a great team player with lots of energy
- able to demonstrate good communication skills
- able to complete the physical aspects of the role such as manual handling where needed
