We support seven people across two locations in Staplehurst that all have a learning disability, and we need support workers to join their teams to help them live as independently as possible. Some of the activities they enjoy include going to the cinema and bowling, going swimming, to the pub and shopping. Do you love any of these things? Why not join their team!


About Us
Affinity Trust was set up in 1991, and since then we have been steadily growing to now support over 1,000 people across England and Scotland. Our mission is to work with people with learning disabilities to lead the lives they choose in their communities and become as independent as possible. Each day will be different and full of amazing interactions with the people you will be working with.



What does the role involve?

Being a support worker means that you are integral to the day-to-day lives of the people you support, helping with various activities such as assistance with personal care, jobs around the house, planning and preparing meals and maintaining health and wellbeing. As well as the routine things, you will also support on days out to the park, to the beach, out for lunch and much more – the possibilities are endless.



What do we need from you?

You will also need to work flexibly across a 7 day rota including weekends and bank holidays. Although experience is great, we believe that as long as you are confident, have a good sense of humour and the same values as us, we can provide you with all the training you need to be a brilliant support worker.





We recognise that although this job is rewarding, it can also be challenging, so in return for your hard work, Affinity Trust offer you:
* 28 days paid holiday per year (inc. bank holidays)
* Competitive pension scheme matching contributions up to 6%
* Discount scheme for shopping, days out, cinema tickets, groceries and much more
* 24-hour helpline for all employees
* Funded and ongoing training for your own development

Be the difference, change lives
