The benefits of working with us include:
* £ 29,250.00 per annum

About us
We support adults and young people with learning disabilities, autism, and mental health difficulties to live independently in the community. As a compassionate, person‑centred company, we focus on creating individualised support packages that empower people to live fulfilling lives. We believe everyone deserves to have deep, caring and meaningful relationships, the right to grow and develop and have access to a safe and welcoming home.
We believe services should be tailored to each individual and that creativity and thinking outside the box are key to delivering bespoke support.
About Hailey
Hailey is involved in the recruitment process for her team, writing a little about herself: Hi, I’m Hailey, I’m 26, and I have a learning disability and frontal lobe impairment, which can make processing information challenging and sometimes cause anxiety or frustration. I can occasionally display behaviours that challenge and need a resilient support team for reassurance. While I have 2:1 support, I am very independent. I’m described as funny, kind, thoughtful, and inquisitive. I’m a girly girl and love pampering activities like getting my hair, nails, and makeup done, and I’m planning to enrol in a hair and beauty course. I’m active, enjoy shopping, spending time at the beach or park, and relaxing with reality TV and music. I’m close to my family, often visiting my mum, and care for my pet rabbit Daisy. In the future, I’d love to get more involved in the community and build friendships with people my age.
