Make a Real Difference – One Person at a Time
Are you looking for a rewarding 30 hour per week, permanent role where you can truly make a difference? Join Quarriers Renfrewshire Supported Living Initiative (SLI) and help support two adult men – one based in Renfrew and the other in Barrhead – to live fulfilling, independent lives in a supported living environment, in their own communities.
These individuals have learning and/or physical disabilities, and you’ll be supporting them on a 1:1 basis with their day-to-day needs, helping them achieve their personal goals and enjoy the things they love – whether that’s getting out and about, attending social activities, or simply making a great home-cooked meal.
About the Service
Renfrewshire Supported Living Initiative supports adults with physical disabilities, learning disabilities, and acquired brain injuries to live at home and be active members of their local communities. We believe that every individual should be treated with dignity and respect, and that care should always be tailored to their unique needs and wishes.
We also support people to access education, clubs, and social activities. As a service, we embrace digital and assistive technologies to promote greater independence and digital inclusion.
