We are looking to recruit male Support Workers in the Manchester area including Trafford, Partington, Altrincham and surrounding areas of Greater Manchester.

Do you believe that everyone should be themselves no matter what? That everyone should have the same opportunities in life and that a disability should not be a barrier? Your job as a support worker is to help make that happen for someone you support? You don’t need experience just passion!

Becoming a Support Worker is just the start, this organisation actively promotes from within and encourages people to progress. You will be joining a unique provider, who promote independence for adults with learning disabilities, living in their own flat or supported living scheme.

David is an example of one of Adults that you may support: -

My name is David, and I live in a shared house with 3 of my good friends. We all get along and I love the times we share (although sometimes we do disagree!) I have autism and I really do struggle if my routine isn’t kept simple and structured and when I am on my own, I can get agitated and upset, this can lead me to make a loud humming noise. I have a Support Worker called Richard and he is a massive help to me. Without him I would always be late for college, I wouldn’t be able to have a nice warm breakfast, and I would forget to take my medication. I also wouldn’t be able to get out in the community swimming twice a week which is what I love. One day I would like to possibly get to the Olympics, that’s my dream. David is there for me when I’m sad or worried, he talks to me and explains things in a clearer way, so I can process what’s happening. Without him I wouldn’t be able to have independence in my own home, which is what life is all about isn’t it!
