Could You Be the Right Match for Rosie?

Support Worker / Personal Assistant – Blantyre

Part-time | £12.60 per hour | Permanent | Flexible hours

Rosie is a warm, sociable woman living in the Blantyre area. She enjoys swimming, going for walks, visiting the cinema, and spending time with others. Rosie has a learning disability and epilepsy and is looking for someone kind, supportive, and reliable to help her maintain her independence and enjoy life to the fullest.

We’re currently recruiting a Male or Female Support Worker to work with Rosie on a one-to-one basis, both in her home and out in the community. This is a permanent role, with between 4 and 6 hours of work per week, and flexible scheduling to fit your lifestyle.

You don’t need to have years of experience — if you have the right attitude, patience, and a caring nature, we’d love to hear from you.
__________________________________________________________________

What the role involves:

As Rosie’s Support Worker, your time together might include:

• Supporting with medication
• Preparing simple, healthy meals and snacks
• Assisting Rosie during walks, swimming sessions, and other physical activities
• Going to the shops, collecting prescriptions, and helping with everyday errands
• Helping with any other tasks that allow Rosie to feel independent and confident
• Being a friendly face and someone Rosie can trust

Rosie also shares her home with a friendly dog, so you’ll need to be comfortable with pets.

What we’re looking for:

• Someone with a genuine interest in supporting others
• A good communicator who is calm, respectful, and patient
• A driver with a full licence (you’ll be driving a mobility vehicle)
• Someone proactive and positive, who will encourage Rosie to try new things and enjoy her favourite activities

While experience with support work or learning disabilities is helpful, it’s not essential — training will be provided.

The Details:

• Hours: 4–6 hours per week
• Rate of Pay: £12.60 per hour
• Days: One afternoon or evening during the week, and one at the weekend
(with flexibility around which days)
• Contract: Permanent
• Location: Blantyre

This is a lovely opportunity to build a meaningful connection with someone and make a real difference in their life — even just a few hours a week.
If Rosie sounds like someone you’d like to support, we’d love to hear from you.
