About the role
We’re looking for a caring, confident and proactive Support Worker to join our team in Bath (BA2), supporting three wonderful women aged 30s–60s in a warm and active home environment.
This is a rewarding role where you’ll provide 1:1 and 2:1 support, helping each person live a meaningful, independent life in a home filled with energy, routine and strong relationships.
You’ll be part of a supportive team while also feeling confident working independently — creating a balance that makes every day engaging and fulfilling.
Who you will be supporting
Each woman has her own personality, preferences and routines. They enjoy a wide variety of activities, including:
- Walks and visits to parks
- Trips to the theatre, cinema and safari parks
- Listening to music — especially The Beatles and 60s classics
- Watching YouTube, SpongeBob and Alvin and the Chipmunks
- Shopping and eating out
Support needs include:
- Personal care
- Medication administration (including epilepsy support)
- Wheelchair support (one full-time user and one for community use)
- Understanding and supporting behaviours of distress
You’ll play a key role in helping them feel safe, confident and connected to the things they enjoy.
What you will be doing
Your role will be varied and meaningful, including:
- Providing person-centred personal care
- Supporting daily routines and independence
- Preparing meals and encouraging healthy choices
- Administering medication safely
- Supporting community activities and outings
- Encouraging social interaction and engagement
- Working closely with colleagues to provide consistent care
- Responding calmly and positively to behaviours of distress
You’ll bring energy, compassion and a positive approach to everything you do.

- Day shifts: 7:30am – 7:00pm / 8:00am – 9:00pm
- Long day + sleep-in: 11:00am – 11:00am (includes sleep-in)
- Sleep-in: 11:00pm – 7:00am (£50 paid to sleep)
Rotas are planned in advance to support a healthy work–life balance.

- Caring, empathetic and values-driven
- Confident working both independently and as part of a team
- Reliable, organised and attentive to detail
- Positive, proactive and flexible
- Comfortable supporting personal care and mobility needs
- Calm and patient when supporting behaviours of distress
