This is a fantastic chance to build a meaningful, long-term relationship with a kind and engaging individual.

Why you'll love being part of our team

  • Excellent pay: Earn £14.50 per hour on weekdays and £16.50 on weekends , with double pay on bank holidays

About you

We are looking for someone who is outgoing, creative, and has a great sense of humour. You must have prior experience supporting someone with learning disabilities and epilepsy.

You will need to be:

  • Reliable and punctual
  • A strong communicator
