Community Female Support Worker

*Female Support Worker Opportunity!*

As a Support Worker at Clos-y-fran in Cwmbran you will work with people who have varying degrees of learning disabilities as well as mental health issues. Your aim is to promote their confidence and independence and support them to lead a fulfilling life. This will be incorporating in both therapy based activities and social based activities.

Some of the activities we do are:

Swimming,
Cinema
Bowling
Day centres,
Arts and crafts
Volunteering
Shopping
Building independent skills i.e. meal prep
Cooking
College
At Voyage Care we value the hard work and commitment of our colleagues by offering:

Enhanced evening and weekend pay at an additional 50p per hour (Ts & Cs apply)
Premium overtime rates at an additional £1 per hour (Ts & Cs apply)
Throughout a typical day, you’ll help our residents with the everyday challenges. Crucially, enabling them to carry out tasks, chores and hobbies that most people take for granted but are really meaningful for your client. You’ll be out and about, enjoying life together and no single day will be the same

We are expanding our team and looking for genuinely caring and hands on individuals to join our team of Support Workers.

You will be supporting people in their own homes and within the community, assisting them to lead independent and fulfilling lives; the people we support are at the heart of all we do. A big part of your role will be supporting people to do their favourite things and try new activities. We ensure they reach their full potential – and of course we’ll make sure that you reach yours.

Your benefits:

Our colleagues are amazing and make a difference to people’s lives every day. We recognise their hard work and dedication by offering a rewarding pay and benefits package alongside our fulfilling roles. This includes:

The individuals we support enjoy a lot of community access, so confidence in lone working is essential. We are therefore looking for Support Workers with previous experience who can hit the ground running. However we will still provide a full training programme that is specific to the needs of the individuals we support.
