Job description

Shared Lives is a care and support service provided by the Richmond Fellowship Scotland and in partnership with North Lanarkshire council which is for people aged 16+ who want to live independently in their community, with the support of a family and community network. It’s an alternative to supported living or residential care.
Shared Lives care is based on shared interests, lifestyles, and sense of humour. It’s a bit like fostering – for adults. It feels like an ordinary life for someone who needs support – and doesn’t feel like a ‘job’ for the carer!
Day/hourly support: A Shared Lives carer will provide companionship and support while using their own home as a base. Supporting the individual to do the things they want to do such as going for walks, having a coffee, going swimming whilst helping them to build up life skills and more. The possibilities are endless.
Respite/Short Breaks: Where the individual can stay with a Shared Lives carer for a break from their home life, which could be for an overnight, weekend or a couple of weeks. If people are to be discharged from hospital but their home requires aids and adaptations , they require intensive support for a limited period until such times as they can return to their home then you could help by offering them a short term break until they can return to their own home.
Full support: Where the individual receiving support lives with and shares the Shared Lives carers family home full time. All that we ask is that you have a spare bedroom and some care experience. Working at home, you can earn between £356 -£500* a week with tax relief, training, and ongoing support. And you get to see the amazing difference you can make in someone’s life – it’s the ultimate work from home job!
So, start your journey today by getting in touch for more information, be amazing its time to share your life while making a difference to someone else’s
Apply today and help us build kinder, stronger communities.

An enhanced PVG check will be required of all successful applicants and all other members of the household over the age of 18 will require a standard PVG; having a conviction will not necessarily debar you from working in this sector.
