Support Worker (days)
Would you love to work as a support Worker but unable to commit to a 24 hour rota? Then this could be the role for you.
About the role:
Join our small, friendly team where every day is different! You will support people with activities they enjoy, such as swimming, cooking, and art. One of the individuals uses a wheelchair, so you will be assisting with mobility and pushing a wheelchair when support is needed. You will work both 1-1 and with small groups, helping to make each day meaningful and fun.
This is not an average support worker role, we are a day service for young adults, where you will be supporting them to learning & improving skills, reach their goals & make friends.
Hours:
21 hours per week. Shifts are 10am-4pm and every other Saturday.
Work 3 days one week and 4 days the next
To support the need of the people that attend the service you may be required to work some evening shifts.
Location:
Maidstone with some onsite parking and pay and display carparks close by. The service is a 10 minute walk from the town centre.
