• £28,275.00 per annum, £14.50 per hour
• 28 days annual leave + up to 4 additional leave days (1 for each year of service)
• Company pension
• Full induction & ongoing paid training
• Retail discounts

• Career progression opportunities
About us
We support adults and young people with learning disabilities, autism, and mental health difficulties to live independently in the community. As a compassionate, person-centred company, we focus on creating individualised support packages that empower people to live fulfilling lives. We believe everyone deserves to have deep, caring and meaningful relationships, the right to grow and develop and have access to a safe and welcoming home.
We believe services should be tailored to each individual and that creativity and thinking outside the box are key to delivering bespoke support.
About Preston
Hi! My name is Preston, I am a young man, and I have a mild Learning Disability and Schizo-affective disorder. I live in my own flat in Gateshead and receive support 2:1.
I am an active person and really enjoy being outdoors, I would like to start swimming again. I enjoy woodwork, painting and decorating, these are things I would like to look at doing more courses in. I enjoy cooking and attend cooking classes where I get to meet other people and learn new skills. Football is important to me, and I am a supporter of Newcastle united, but I also enjoy watching Gateshead play. I have previously completed a first aid course and would like to look at doing this again as well as a food hygiene course. I enjoy listening to music and this can help me relax. I like people to have a good sense of humour but also take time to listen to me and give me time to process what is being said or asked.
