We're looking for active, confident people to join an exciting new team, working in a brand-new development in the Heath area of Cardiff.

If you can empower and motivate people to achieve their goals, you could be the perfect person to positively impact the lives of two young autistic brothers, who are aged 26 and 33.

Each day you will plan and participate in a busy calendar of activities the two men enjoy, such as cycling, going to the gym and swimming. You will promote a healthy lifestyle by preparing and sharing well balanced, tasty meals with them, and you will provide them with the active support and structure that they need to thrive.

mirus is a not-for-profit charitable organisation, working in partnership with the people they support, their families and other partners, to deliver high quality, person-centred support services for people with a disability. We have been supporting people in Wales for over 35 years and currently support over 350 people in ten different local authority areas.

What will you be doing?

• As a Support Worker you will develop, implement, and review a range of individual support plans to enable the person that you will support to lead a fulfilling life.
• You will provide support with a range of tasks which may include household and domestic tasks, shopping, diet/food preparation, personal care, personal hygiene, dressing and personal appearance.
• As a Support worker we will support you in studying towards your QCF Level 2 Health and Social Care, which is completely funded by mirus.
• You will work alongside other professionals such as care managers, community nurses and occupational therapists to deliver high quality support.

What difference will you make? Take a look.
