Hillside Lodge Care Home is situated in Berwick-Upon-Tweed providing nursing care for up to 50 residents.
Because joy, connection, and purpose matter at every stage of life.
We’re looking for a creative and compassionate Activities Assistant to bring energy, laughter, and meaningful engagement into the daily lives of our residents. Whether it’s crafting, chatting, dancing, or simply listening you’ll help create moments that matter.
What We Offer
* £12.21 per hour
* Contracted to 13 hours per week
* Flexible shifts on offer; days
This is more than just a job; it’s an opportunity to make a real impact by helping people stay connected, stimulated, and truly feel part of a community.
Why this role matters:
Staying active and socially engaged is a vital part of wellbeing, especially in later life. As an Activities Assistant, you’ll support residents to rediscover hobbies, celebrate milestones, and try new things all in a way that suits their personality and preferences.
Whether it’s group events or quiet one-to-one moments, your creativity and care will help lift spirits and bring smiles every day.
What we’re looking for:
You don’t need a background in care or entertainment just a big heart and a genuine passion for working with people. You’re someone who brings warmth and enthusiasm into every room, and you know how to spark conversation, laughter, or a sense of calm when it’s needed most.
About you:
You’ll be organised and confident leading small group sessions, adaptable when plans change, and always focused on making each activity inclusive and enjoyable. If you’ve got experience planning or running activities in any setting, that’s a bonus but it’s your ability to connect with people that really matters.
If you’re ready to bring joy and purpose into people’s lives through creativity, empathy, and fun, we’d love to hear from you.
Apply today and join a team where every day brings new opportunities to make a difference.
