Support Workers, Cornwall

Havencare Homes and Support Limited is a forward-thinking charity that supports people with learning disabilities and autism. We have various contracted opportunities, throughout our Cornwall Supported Living Services, for enthusiastic, resourceful, and forward-thinking people to join our existing teams.

Your role would involve supporting people with all aspects of day-to-day living, some aspects of personal care, in their homes and out in the community. The people you would support have a range of interests which include trains, the red arrows, kayaking and rock climbing, history and watching films. They also enjoy walking into town for a coffee, shopping and exploring different places by bus or train. If you share these interests, then this could be a great opportunity for you to work in an environment that combines your shared interests with your career.

At Havencare we don’t think that experience is everything, first and foremost we are looking for outstanding people with outstanding values that align with our values of Transparency, Quality and Engagement.

As we provide a 24-hour, 365 days a year service to people living across Cornwall, we would love to hear from people who are looking for flexible part or full-time positions within our person-centered services.
