You'll be supporting adults aged between 18 and 75 who live independently in their own apartments within a welcoming supported living community in Hailsham.
The people we support have a variety of suport needs, including learning disabilities, autism, mental health conditions, dementia and mobility difficulties. Every individual has their own interests, aspirations and goals, and our role is to provide the support, encouragement and opportunities they need to achieve them.
This is a lively and sociable service where people enjoy getting involved in their local community and making the most of life. Some enjoy arts and crafts, baking, gaming, exercise, radio broadcasting and gardening, while others love trips to cafés, cinemas, community events, football matches, theatre shows and fundraising activities.
Many of the people we support have ambitious goals, whether that's learning new daily living skills, becoming more independent at home, preparing meals for friends and family, travelling, or exploring new places and experiences. As a Bank Support Worker, you'll play an important role in helping people work towards these aspirations.
You'll be joining a close-knit team that prides itself on creating positive opportunities and meaningful experiences. The service has a strong community presence and regularly supports people to attend local events, build friendships and stay connected to the things that matter most to them.
