Hollybank Trust is a charity based in West and South Yorkshire and we are proud of our reputation for excellence over our rich history. Our mission statement is to provide education, residential care, plus a range of therapies and enrichment activities for children, young people and adults with profound and multiple disabilities. We focus on ability not disability and celebrate our differences.

Willow Court in Mirfield is a 19-bed home for adults, we are looking for some amazing new people to join their teams on a full or part-time basis. All of our roles include some weekend working, our night shifts are 9:15pm – 7:15am. You will receive a rota in advance that allows you to plan for your days off. 

When you start your role at Hollybank, we will ask you to do 1 – 2 weeks of shifts on days so that you can get to know our adults better. This will allow you to work closely with them, and develop a deeper appreciation of their likes, dislikes, routines, and communication methods. You will then start your night time rota, which will include additional shadowing and training to ensure you are fully equipped with all the tools and knowledge you need!
