Companion - Carer - Day Brightener

Are you looking for a part-time role where you can really make a difference?

We are looking for kind people to join our small friendly team of Day Brighteners who provide companionship for older people to help them live independently at home.

Please note:Due to the location of some of our clients, a full driving license is required for this opportunity.

What do Day Brighteners do?

Our team offers a range of services such as:

• Accompanying people to appointments (e.g. hairdressing, dental, hospital, meeting friends)

• Enjoying trips out - shopping, cinema, walks, activity classes and any other activities you come up with together!

• Providing respite care for family members (companionship to give carers a break but no medical or intimate care)

Who are we looking for?

If you are enthusiastic, friendly and fun, this could be the perfect role for you. We’re looking for someone who is:

• A caring and kind individual who is compassionate
• Trustworthy and flexible in approach
• Keen to work as part of a small friendly team
• Looking to make a real difference and brighten clients’ days

Hours of work are flexible and weekend work which is becoming increasingly popular attracts a higher hourly rate. We are ideally looking for people to work around 20 hours per week with some evening and weekends where necessary.

We can be flexible to fit around your other weekly commitments making this the perfect role for parents, grandparents and down-sizers who can commit to the same slots each week.

The role is offered on a self-employed basis, but we can advise and offer full support in setting this up, so paperwork is minimal and we’re happy to help.

If you’d like to know more about what we do and how you could be a part of our team, please get in touch for a chat.
