Who will I be supporting?
You'll be supporting a young man with complex needs to live his best life — his way.
He lives independently in the beautiful village of Rufforth, where he enjoys staying active through walking, cycling, and swimming. He shares his home with his much-loved support dog, who's always ready for cuddles! He also enjoys listening to music, going to the cinema, and spending quality time with his family.

What will I be doing?
Every day will bring something different — you'll be supporting him to:
Build and develop independent living skills
Take part in everyday activities like shopping, cooking, cleaning, and laundry
Manage his medication safely and effectively
Explore opportunities in education, employment, and leisure
Live life to the fullest, with encouragement and compassion every step of the way
Why Join Us?
This is more than just a job — it's a chance to empower someone to live a fulfilling, independent life, surrounded by people who care. You'll be part of a supportive and dedicated team that values respect, inclusion, and personal growth.
