Make a Real Difference Every Day
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 make a difference every day by supporting people to do the little and big things in life, encouraging and empowering them to live their lives the way they choose.
We’re looking for caring and dedicated Support Workers to join our friendly team in Brede. You’ll support adults with learning disabilities and complex health needs in their daily routines, including wellbeing and personal care, while encouraging them to enjoy the activities they love - whether that’s spending time in the garden, theatre trips, regular visits to church, pub meals, or days out.
You’ll also support people to use a variety of communication methods and technology aids, such as iPads - so patience, creativity, and a willingness to connect in different ways are essential qualities in a Support Worker.
To succeed in this role, you’ll need to work flexibly across the week, including some weekends and sleep-in shifts. The ability to reach this location as early as 7am and finish as late as 10pm is important, as the home is not easily accessible by public transport.
If you’re looking for a rewarding and purpose-driven Support Worker role where no two days are the same, this could be the perfect opportunity for you.
