We are currently recruiting for a female Support Worker to join a supported living home in New Barnet, North London.

About our home
This is a female-only supported living home for four women aged in their 20s and 30s. The people we support are all independent in different ways and enjoy a wide range of hobbies and interests.

The people we support enjoy being socialable and active. Interests include horse riding, swimming, ceramics, drama groups, and volunteering. One woman attends church, and another has a part-time voluntary job. The home has a fun, upbeat atmosphere and is best suited to someone who is energetic, resilient, and has a good sense of humour.
