Join My Life’s Inspirational Team: Make a Real Difference with Us!
At My Life, we’re all about making a real difference in people's lives through our passionate and inspirational teams. Here, you won't just be working a job; you'll be contributing to meaningful community-based work that positively impacts lives every day.
My Life was established in 2012 as a result of a group of people with disabilities and their families wanting something different to traditional types of health/social care services and wanting more choice and control over their own lives.

Each person has their own dedicated team, delivering support that’s tailored specifically to their needs and preferences. This isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach—it's about making sense for them and making a difference.
