We are able to offer as many or as few hours as you like, around the hours of our care delivery, including early mornings, evenings, bed time and weekends. You need to be committed to your role, which will in turn offer continuity to our service users.
We have full time rounds of work available and also part time rounds during the week and weekends.

If it’s only a few hours on a regular basis we can offer you work once we have trained you.
