Shift Patterns
We understand that our colleagues like to have a good work/life balance, so we try to be as flexible as possible with our shift patterns. Our team currently deliver support between the hours from 9am-9pm, 7 days a week. Weekends and public holidays are also included on a rotational basis.
There may be times where an evening shift ends a little later depending on activities the people we support have planned, but you would always have advanced notice.

If you're successful in joining our team, you will be expected to join the Protecting Vulnerable Groups (PVG) Scheme and must be willing to work towards a SVQ in Social Services and Healthcare as required for SSSC registration.
