A Carer will assist Day Care clients while they are at the Centre. This may involve any activity associated with older people. Help in standing/walking; assistance with eating; making sure they are comfortable in their seat; in some cases also toilet assistance.

Carers will serve lunch, refreshments, and help clear up afterwards.
Essentially, acting as companion for the day.

Training is provided, and our clients are generally infirm rather than significantly disabled.


MEN as carers are especially welcome, as several clients are male and really do appreciate male company

Most current carers do this on a rota basis for a full day, although part-time would be possible and welcomed.

Bus Escort

This position required 'Disclosure'.

Bus Escort / Carer, possibly half-day or 'part-time'. (Wed OR Fri: 09:30-10:30 and 3:30-4:30)

Our Mini Bus requires an ESCORT to collect clients from their homers and help them get seated and seat-belted in the mini bus. This may involve helping to walk, and locking doors etc.

MEN carers are especially welcome, as the escort has to open/close the minibus doors and operate the steps/lift, although ladies do this perfectly easily too


This position could be morning only, or afternoon only; or could be matched to one of our drivers as a transport team.
