Do you enjoy helping people, solving practical problems and making a genuine difference in someone's day?
We are looking for reliable, thoughtful and friendly individuals to support older people living independently in their own homes.
This is NOT a personal care role. You will help older adults remain active, comfortable and connected by providing practical assistance and companionship.
Typical tasks may include:
- Sharing a cup of tea and conversation
- Meal preparation and/or cooking
- Light household tasks
- Accompanying clients on walks
- Helping to organise the home
- Supporting them with using technology
- Identifying potential scams or safety concerns
- Assisting with gardening and everyday practical tasks
- Encouraging independence and wellbeing
We're looking for people who:
- Enjoy being around older people
- Have common sense and good judgement
- Are reliable and professional
- Respect clients' homes and personal choices
- Can work independently
- Are warm, observant and trustworthy
- Enjoy solving practical problems
Experience in care is not essential.
In return we offer:
- Meaningful one-to-one client relationships
- Opportunities to develop new skills
- The chance to make a positive difference in your local community through our Community Interest Company.
Your contribution will help an older person remain independent in the home they love.
