SAFE FAMILIES FOR CHILDREN26,280 - 32,065 per year (pro rata)DarlingtonPart-time5th February 2026
The Family Support Manager is a key staff role which involves working with families and facilitating support from volunteers recruited from the local church and community.
You would work as part of the North West team which includes Lancashire, Sefton, Knowsley & St Helens, and you will need to be able to travel and work predominantly across Lancashire. You would be involved from initial referral from school or Local Authority, through to official completion of Safe Families’ support, including risk assessment of a family situation, identifying goals, matching and introducing volunteers, providing on-going mentoring and support to volunteers and assessing when outcomes have been achieved. Your objective is to help support families navigate challenging circumstances through connecting them into local volunteer based, sustainable support.
The role requires experience of working with children, families or other vulnerable groups, and knowledge and application of safeguarding principles and processes. It is an incredibly exciting role where you would have the privilege of seeing how the simplest of actions, often from dedicated volunteers, really can bring hope and transformation to families and care leavers.
Are you someone who believes life is for living? Do you love football days, brunch dates, theatre nights, shopping trips, craft sessions, and throwing a great celebration? If so, this could be the role for you.
We’re looking for Support Workers to join our fantastic team in Gainsborough. You’ll be working across two vibrant services, supporting some amazing people who love to be social and make the most of every day. Whether it’s catching the latest show, volunteering in the community, or simply enjoying a coffee and a chat – no two days are ever the same.
This isn’t just a job, it’s a chance to build genuine relationships, share laughter, and support people in living life their way. You will also be providing support with personal care, finances, manual handling, household tasks, and following Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) plans. You’ll be making a real difference every day.
We offer full-time, part-time, and relief roles with varied shift patterns, sleep-in and weekend shifts are part of the package too so flexibility is key – but in return, you’ll be part of a supportive, inclusive team where your work is truly valued.
You don’t need experience to apply – just the right values, a can-do attitude, and a big heart. Training will be provided, and ongoing development is all part of the journey.
So if you're ready to start a role where you’re not just going to work – you’re going to make memories, build friendships, and help people live their best lives – we’d love to hear from you.
Apply today and be part of something special in Gainsborough.

The role of the support worker is varied and the team is committed to enabling people to live a full life. The nature of people’s needs can extend to fully supporting people with all aspects of daily living; personal care, cooking, medication, cleaning and budgeting, to enabling people to go shopping, access employment and education, attending regular social events, with the people we support encouraged to try new experiences. We tailor our services to enable people to be as independent as possible.
Staff will empower people to have a wide range of experiences and to get the best out of all that they do to enjoy life.
We use a digital social care record system, to support daily recording, which will make your day-to-day tasks easier and allows you to spend more time with the People We Support

- supporting people with medication
- ensuring record keeping is maintained to the required standard at all times and contributing to service monitoring requirements.

- passionate, caring and enthusiastic
- 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
