We are looking for compassionate, resilient and dedicated Support Workers to join a specialist service supporting adults with complex learning disabilities.

There will be occasional lone-working shifts, so you'll need to be confident working independently, using your initiative and making sound decisions while maintaining high standards of care.
Experience supporting individuals with diabetes would be highly desirable, although full training and ongoing support will be provided.
