Lifeworks Community Program is looking to sustain provision for young people with learning disabilities online and in person for the foreseeable future. To keep the young people we support safe we are working in bubbles to provide Saturday Youth groups in Torbay and Totnes and short breaks in the holidays. We are also delivering a series of online workshops to sustain activity even if we have to reduce or cut our in person delivery because of COVID-19 restrictions that may have to be imposed in the coming months.
To enable this flexible delivery, we are looking to recruit support staff able to work at the weekends and/or in the holidays. You will be joining a diverse team of staff committed to supporting young people and young adults with learning disabilities to have a great life. We are looking for people who can contribute to our delivery and support young people to GET ACTIVE – GET INVOLVED – GET CREATIVE – GET TOGETHER

We are a well-established charity that provides an excellent range of staff benefits including 28 days’ annual leave, a company pension scheme, staff discount scheme, ongoing training and supervision, continuing professional development and support as well as an extensive induction on commencement of employment.

Lifeworks is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of young people and young adults and they expect all staff to share this commitment. For this post, pre-employment checks will be carried out, references will be sought and successful candidates will need to undertake an enhanced DBS check.

As a Disability Confident Leader we are committed to encouraging applications from people who declare they have a disability. Provided they meet the minimum criteria for the job (as detailed in the person specification) we would offer a guaranteed interview. If you would like to discuss this further or require support when completing your application, please call 01803 861067.
