Job description

Shared Lives Powys are seeking individuals or households who are willing to share their home for short periods with an adult (aged 18+) who requires short break or respite support to live independently within their local community. Shared Lives is an alternative to supported living or residential care. Short Breaks Shared Lives arrangements provide planned, time-limited stays and offer adults the opportunity to experience life in an ordinary household, build relationships, and remain connected to their community.

As a Short Breaks / Respite Shared Lives Carer, you will:

  • Provide short-term accommodation and day-to-day support in your own home
  • Share everyday household and community life during planned stays
  • Support independence, skills development, and social inclusion

Arrangements are planned and time-limited, with careful matching at the heart of Shared Lives. Shared Lives Carers are self-employed.
