About Thrive at Home
We’re growing — and we need more amazing people to join our core team!
Empower Support’s Thrive at Home is a new, recovery‑focused community service offering mental health support to people in their own homes across Swansea and Neath Port Talbot.
We’re not your typical domiciliary care provider. Our approach is individualised, holistic, and empowering — helping people with mental health challenges to live fulfilling, independent lives in the community, not hospitals.
Our vision is simple:
Everyone deserves to be their best self and live their best life.
Empower Support is owned and led by registered mental health nurses with extensive NHS experience. We’re passionate about high‑quality, person‑centred care and a positive, supportive working culture where our staff are valued, trusted, and developed.
