As a Learning Disability Support Worker you will be empowering our service users to lead the life they want and you`ll support them to go out walks, going by car on day trips, to the cinema and bowling. You`ll join a supportive team with a `can do` attitude who engage with our residents to find new things for the service users to join in with whether it`s arts and crafts, cooking or a Friday night disco.
