What is Relief?

Relief work is offered on an as‑and‑when basis to cover sickness absence, study leave, and other staffing needs, and may vary in demand over time.

- Previous experience as a Care Worker, Social Worker, Home Carer, Case Worker, Care Assistant, Autism Support Worker, Personal Care Assistant, or Social Care Worker is an advantage but not essential, as Ark will provide full training.
