- Deploying volunteers and arranging practical help such as transport, shopping, or companionship.
- Maintaining accurate records and contributing to service reports and evaluations.
What We’re Looking For
- A background in health, social care, or community support (qualifications or equivalent experience).
- Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to build trust and rapport quickly.
- A flexible, empathetic, and person-centred approach to support.
- Confidence in working independently and as part of a wider team.
- Good IT and record-keeping skills.
- A full UK driving licence and use of your own vehicle (mileage reimbursed).
- Willingness to undergo an Enhanced DBS check (arranged and paid for by us).
Why Join Us?

- Receive full training, including safeguarding, dementia awareness, and Care Certificate Standards.
- Work in a varied and meaningful role where no two days are the same.
