Community Integrated Care is one of the UK’s largest health and social care charities. We transform lives by delivering high-quality, person‑centred support that fosters independence and empowerment.

Our charity was founded in 1988 and we were one of the pioneers of the ‘Care in the Community’ agenda, enabling people to move out of long‑stay institutions and live more fulfilling lives.

Since then, we’ve remained leaders in social care, providing bespoke support to thousands across the UK. Today, we support more than 2,600 people and employ 6,600 caring and committed colleagues across England and Scotland.

We have a proud history of breaking boundaries and are always looking for new ways to make a positive difference through bold ideas, innovative projects and impactful partnerships.

Working closely with the Service Leader and Support Worker Team, you will be responsible for supporting vulnerable individuals with mental health concerns, learning disabilities and addiction issues in their day to day lives. Each person we support is unique, so the support you provide will be person‑centred and will focus on achieving the best lives possible with each individual.

We are currently recruiting for day shifts or night shifts to work a variety of shifts between Monday and Sunday - some weekend work is required

We can accommodate bank roles, permanent part‑time or full‑time contracts (for days) OR a 40‑hour contract (for nights)

Because of the nature of the support provided, this role can be emotionally and mentally demanding. We’re looking for people who can remain steady under pressure, build trust, respond with empathy and maintain professional boundaries.

Life experience, resilience and a genuine commitment to helping others are essential in this post. This opportunity would suit someone who understands that progress can take time and who is able to offer patient, consistent support that helps people feel safe, respected and empowered in their own homes.

As a Support Worker, your role will be varied and hands‑on. You will:

• Support with medication, personal care, meal preparation and maintaining a safe home environment
• Provide practical and emotional support with daily living, routines, appointments and community access
• Help individuals manage challenges linked to mental health, addiction and independent living in a safe and respectful way
