We are seeking a dedicated and enthusiastic Band 4 Support Worker to join the Supported Living team within the Adult Disabilities Services on the beautiful Island of Guernsey, in the Channel Islands.
The Service supports people with learning disabilities and autism in various settings, including residential homes, a short-break service, supported living, and outreach. There is also a recently opened, brand new purpose-built autism hub.
