Creative Support is a national, fast growing not-for-profit organisation providing support to individuals with a wide range of care needs. We are currently looking for confident, enthusiastic and motivated Support Workers for our Sheffield learning disability services.

Our Sheffield services provide consistent, person centred support to individuals with learning disabilities. Some of the people we support may also have additional complex physical or other health and social needs. We offer an empowering model of support which enables people to lead fulfilling and happy lives, maintain their tenancies, participate in their local community, develop independent living skills and achieve their personal goals and desired outcomes.







Support Worker Duties:

- Providing personal care and administering medication to service users

- Accompanying service users when accessing the wider community and supporting with activities such as: shopping, maintaining friendships and family relationships, visiting the cinema and having meals out
- Willingness to work flexibly according to the needs of the service, to include days, evenings and weekends

Previous care experience is desirable but not essential for this role, as we provide ongoing training and support through our Creative Support Training Academy. A full UK driving license and ability to drive service users' car is also desirable, but not essential. The ideal candidate will demonstrate a 'can-do approach', person-centred values, energy and commitment.
