We’re looking for compassionate people who can roll with the punches and work well in a team. You’ll be helping to create a space where everyone feels safe, supported, and ready to thrive.
What You’ll Do
* Help with everyday tasks like showering, getting ready, meal preparation, and social activities

* Create a safe an environment where everyone feels valued
* Build strong relationships with Dave, recognising what makes him unique
