THE COMPANY: We are pleased to be working with one of the largest charities nationally who are dedicated to providing high-quality, personalised support to adults with learning disabilities. For the last 25 years their reputation has been built upon their values, passion and commitment to enable people with Learning Disabilities to live active and fulfilling lives.
THE ROLE: We support 5 individuals in their own homes in the Great Finborough area just outside Stowmarket.

We are looking for innovative team members to support them to lead meaningful lives. Going on holidays, swimming, music and art therapy, walking, trips to the coast, local outdoor events and visits to the zoo are just some of things they like doing. Support is also required in other aspects of their lives including personal care, housework, meal preparation, shopping and bill paying.
Key Responsibilities -

- Support with their shopping, assist with budgeting,
- Building/maintaining relationship with friends and family
- Household tasks including cooking, cleaning and laundry
- Going out for walks, drives, swimming and other activities that people supported may want to experience.
THE CANDIDATE: We know this is a challenging role, so we are hoping to find resilient people who can see this as more than job - this is a chance to make a real difference, that will not only enrich someone else's life but also yours.
We are looking for great people to join the Support Worker team who are seeking a satisfying opportunity within the Health & Social Care sector. You don't need any experience as we employ people based on their values and commitment.
- Full induction process and dedicated manager to support you
- Outstanding training and development opportunities as a Support Worker

- Empathy, caring and sensitivity to the needs of others
- Full UK driving licence
