  • Supporting daily routines from morning to bedtime
  • Planning and enjoying person‑centred activities — walks, swimming, shopping and trips out
  • Building trusted, respectful relationships that support confidence and wellbeing

  • Working closely with colleagues and professionals

This is a role where building strong relationships is just as important as providing practical support.
