Calling all compassionate and dedicated individuals! Mencap is seeking passionate Support Workers to join our incredible team in Yaxley - Peterborough.

We are looking for a Support Worker to join our Domiciliary Care Service based in Yaxley on a permanent, part time basis (20 hours a week).
Yaxley is situated on the outskirts of Peterborough. As you are likely to support more than one person a day and travel a short distance from each venue, a driver with access to a vehicle they can use for work is essential.
Shifts will be spread across mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and bank holidays. Currently shifts start as early as 07:00 and evening shifts finish by 19:30. Flexibility is a must as you will need to be available to work across various shifts and venues. This role will not involve any overnight working.

Support we provided is varied and may involve support with medication and health matters, meal planning and preparation, budgeting and banking, or support with social activities, trips out to cafes, cinema, or swimming. The person you support may have their own goals/ambitions and just need a little help to achieve these.
Contract options:
- Part-time : flexible hours based on availability
- Relief: Flexible working with no set hours/shifts
