Activities Coordinator

We provide support to people with learning disabilities, mental health needs, older people, people with Autism and physical disabilities, across Wales. We do that in a number of ways from providing 24-hour support within their own homes, to providing shorter, more focused support to assist with individual tasks or care needs, which are often determined in conjunction with Social Services. The people we support, and their families are at the support of what we do so we are looking for individuals who have the right skills, experience and ability to provide a high quality of support and care to really make a difference.
