Do you have the commitment and positive values to make a difference to the lives of people with a learning disability living in a supported living service and supported via our outreach/domiciliary service based in Blackpool?

Creative Support is a non-profit organisation which provides high quality person centered social care services for people with learning disabilities, mental health and other needs. Our supported living and domiciliary service in Blackpool provides person-centered support to adults who have learning disabilities, some of whom are on the autistic spectrum and have complex needs.

We are looking for calm, resourceful and energetic individuals who are well motivated, hardworking and keen to join our friendly team. You will provide person-centered care and support to tenants and service users on the outreach to take part in all aspects of everyday life and to enjoy a wide range of activities.

The role includes support with personal care and domestic tasks as well as community activities such as walking, swimming and going to the gym. Prior experience in this field of work is beneficial, although not a substitute for an engaging, creative and person centered approach. We will value the personal skills and interests you bring to the role and to the lives of service users, such as sports, walking and outdoor pursuits, creative arts, music and cooking; to name but a few.

This role offers unique and challenging opportunities bringing great job satisfaction to those who are looking to make a positive difference to the lives of others and can provide a career path into social care.
