Earn. Learn. Make a Difference.

Salary: £8.00 per hour during your apprenticeship, and on successful completion: Progress to a Support Worker role earning £13.46 per hour plus enhancements.

And the best bit?

When you successfully complete your apprenticeship, you'll have the opportunity to move into a permanent Support Worker role earning £13.46 per hour.
