This role will involve a real hands-on approach supporting them to maintain their health and wellbeing. They enjoy a variety of activities at home and within their community, so if you enjoy new and exciting things to do, then this could be just the place for you.
You should be available to work a variety of shifts across the week and some weekends, including some sleep-in shifts as needed
An essential part of this role is being a driver and having access to your own vehicle

Your Benefits
What will we do?
We will train you in everything you need to be a great Support Worker. We will apply and pay for your enhanced DBS, and we have a mentorship scheme in place to provide support and guide you on your journey with us.
We provide a package of benefits that make it that bit easier to be your best and we can also support you to achieve a Level 2 diploma in Health and Social Care and pursue a career that takes on more responsibility.
We offer Wagestream - a money management app that gives you access to a percentage of your pay as you earn it, access to coaching, vouchers, discounts, cashback and more
What will you do?
Supporting people is really important but it’s not all trips out and artwork. We also support people to take medication, assist with personal care, make healthy lifestyle choices and maintain their home in a way that they feel safe, well and happy.
It sounds exciting to say no two days will be the same, but in support, sometimes they are. Sometimes people like routine and struggle with change… But when you support someone to try something new – what a feeling!
If you want to empower people to live the life they choose within Lowestoft and you share our values… Apply to become a Support Worker today.
