    This role is flexible and can accommodate your lifestyle, offering opportunities for occasional, part-time, or full-time hours.

What we offer:

  • Hourly rates with enhanced pay for holidays, emergency shifts, overnight, and live-in care.
  • Flexible scheduling – choose the shifts that work for you.
  • Free training and ongoing support.
  • A £50 referral bonus when a friend you recommend joins and starts working.
  • Inclusive employer – we welcome people from all backgrounds and experiences.
  • The chance to be part of a growing, community-focused organisation.

What you’ll need:

  • Compassion, patience, and reliability.
  • Good communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Ability to work independently and adapt to changing needs.
  • Flexibility in scheduling and willingness to cover some short-notice requests.
  • Willingness to complete an Enhanced DBS check (we’ll support you if you don’t already have one).
