The young people who attend Foxden have a variety of physical and/or learning disabilities. The home has residential space for up to 4 young people and is available 363 days of the year.
Short breaks enable us to create the perfect environment to entertain, interact with, and provide for all of our young people's individual needs. We also love to be part of the community and regularly take trips out. We provide young people the opportunity to develop and learn in an environment that is safe and fun.
Our team is experienced and well established and we are looking for likeminded, enthusiastic, and passionate people to join us!

You will be expected to partake key working responsibilities for young people and to maintain records as required, so ICT skills are essential.
You will be an integral part of the Care Team and work alongside other professionals to support children, young people and their families achieve the best possible outcomes by using a range of intervention methods and approaches.
We are looking for a person that can display a patient and resilient attitude, exceptional communication skills and who will work with compassion, positivity and bring some fun into this role.
Ideally you will already have a Level 3 Diploma in Residential Childcare or equivalent, and experience of working in a similar setting, however if you have the right attributes and a passion for working with young people, we will be able to offer full training where you will gain your qualification within 2 years of appointment.
