We're looking for caring, resilient and positive Support Workers to join our friendly team in Newcastle, supporting adults within 4 forensic supported living homes to build independence, develop life skills and achieve their personal goals.

This is a unique opportunity to support people on their journey towards greater independence, helping them to live fulfilling lives within their community while providing the encouragement, consistency and understanding they need to succeed.

Your role may include:

Supporting people with daily living skills and routines.
Encouraging independence, confidence and personal development.
Helping individuals access community activities, appointments and social opportunities.
Providing emotional reassurance and practical support.
Supporting with medication where required.
Assisting with meal planning, shopping and household tasks.
Promoting wellbeing, healthy lifestyles and positive outcomes.
Following support plans and risk management strategies.
Working collaboratively with colleagues, families and other professionals.

No two days are the same, and you'll play a key role in empowering the people we support to make choices, achieve goals and live the life they choose.

Compassionate, patient and understanding.
Calm and confident in challenging situations.
Great communicators with a positive attitude.
Passionate about supporting people to achieve their potential.
Flexible and reliable team players.
Committed to providing high-quality, person-centred support.
