Looking for a Role That’s Rewarding, Active, and Full of Variety?

Who Will You Be Supporting?

You’ll support:

  • One individual in their 30s – very active, loves long hikes, swimming, gym sessions, and works at a farm (independently during work hours).
  • Another individual in their 30s – fun-loving with a great sense of humour, enjoys horse riding, arts and crafts, cooking, and exploring historic places like Black Country Museum and Blists Hill. Epilepsy is managed with medication.

Both individuals value consistency and positive relationships, so your role will be key in helping them thrive.
