Job Description

Job Advert
Mencap are seeking Support Workers on both permanent and relief contracts to join our incredible teams in our services in Northallerton.
As a Support Worker, you'll have the opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of individuals with learning disabilities. You will be working with a diverse group of people, each with their own unique abilities and needs.
From assisting with daily activities to providing emotional support, you’ll play a vital role in their life.
We support three gentlemen who live together in a supported living service in Northallerton. We are looking to grow our lively, inclusive, knowledgeable and exceptionally friendly staff team.
The gentlemen we support lead individual lifestyles and enjoy a variety of activities, including attending day opportunities, visiting local cafés, spending time with family and friends, going out in the community, and taking part in activities that reflect their personal interests.
Two of the gentlemen are older and enjoy a more relaxed pace of life, while the third enjoys regular community involvement. The people we support have a range of needs, including learning disabilities, autism, mobility needs, and support with communication and emotional wellbeing.
Some individuals require support with mobility and personal care, while others benefit from gentle encouragement and reassurance to access activities, maintain routines, and engage with their local community. We use a Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) approach, focusing on understanding each person's needs, promoting independence, and supporting positive outcomes.
This is a rewarding role where no two days are the same, and where building meaningful relationships is at the heart of the support we provide.
Contract options:
·   Permanent Hours 30
    Relief 
All our services are 24hr care. We prepare the rotas at least 4 weeks in advance so you can still plan your personal and social life!
There is also a non-contractual sleep-in available where you will receive an enhanced flat-rate payment of £63.70.
Mencap holds a Home Office sponsorship licence; however, due to current restrictions on our allocation of Certificates of Sponsorship, we are unable to offer sponsorship for this role. Applicants must therefore have the right to work in the UK without sponsorship.
