Support Worker in Morpeth

We're looking for caring, resilient and enthusiastic Support Workers to join our team at Wilkinson Park, Harbottle. Please note: this role involves supporting adults who may display behaviours that challenge and is not primarily an elderly care position. Experience working with complex needs is advantageous, but full training will be provided.

We're a family-run business, established for over 30 years, with 11 specialist Care Homes across the North East of England. We specialise in supporting adults aged 18+ with a range of complex needs, and our focus is always on helping the people we support to live meaningful, fulfilling and as independent a life as possible.

Our services support individuals with a range of needs, including:

• Learning disabilities
• Autism
• Mental health needs
• Acquired brain injuries
• Complex physical needs
• Behaviours that may challenge

This isn't traditional elderly care. It's about people, possibilities and making a difference every single day.
