Imagine a job where you can change someone's life by doing the things you take for granted?
As a Support Worker at Affinity Trust, you'll play an important role each day by supporting people to take part in the activities and experiences they value, helping them to live with confidence and independence.
It might be something simple like taking a walk to the shops to get a pint of milk; or something bigger like supporting someone to visit the gym for the first time, start a new hobby, or even take a trip abroad.
In this role, you will be supporting four ladies with learning disabilities and Autism who love getting out into the community and engaging in new experiences.
We provide complete training to enable you to provide the best support you can to people living with learning disabilities, autism, or mental health needs.
What truly matters is your kindness, positivity, and desire to make a difference in someone's day.
Making a difference for those we support includes;
Allowing people to fulfil and enjoy their daily routines and achieve their goals
Building trust, connection, and independence
Developing yourself alongside a compassionate, mindful and dedicated team of colleagues
