About the role
As a Support Worker at Brandon Trust, you’ll be part of something meaningful, supporting autistic people and people with learning disabilities to live life in the way that suits them best.

You’ll support with day-to-day activities like shopping, cooking, and managing health needs—always led by the person’s own preferences and goals.

Personal care is always delivered in a respectful and person-centred way, in line with each individual's needs and preferences.
No two days are the same, and every day brings the opportunity to be part of someone’s progress and independence.
