Here is your opportunity to start a career in rehabilitation support work.

You do not need experience in care or support roles - we provide a full induction and specialist training and coaching.

Working in brain injury rehabilitation is different to other kinds of support work. You're there to encourage and guide individuals, helping them gain the skills and confidence to live independently.

You will share the journey with these inspiring people as they overcome hurdles, achieve milestones, and reach the goals they've set.

Many of the people we support only stay for three months before they are ready to move on. You can make a massive difference in that time.

We have full and part-time roles on offer.

Why join us?

The Disabilities Trust is a leading UK charity that works alongside people with an acquired brain injury, autism, and learning or physical disabilities to help them live as independently as possible. Our teams across the UK support people to move forward with their lives. It's a special feeling to share their individual journeys and play a part in the progress they make. Our employees are incredibly passionate about the jobs they do - you'll find a strong team spirit across our services and amazing colleagues who always pull together and look out for each other.

The Role
Kerwin Court delivers specialist neurobehavioural rehabilitation to adults with acquired brain injury. Set in attractive landscaped gardens, Kerwin Court has a bright, modern and spacious environment superbly equipped for neurobehavioural rehabilitation. This includes, physiotherapy gyms, occupational therapy kitchens, a games room, and a large garden with allotment, amongst other amenities. There are 16 ensuit rooms, two flats and five bungalows to support service users increasing their independence.

We are a passionate and committed team, delivering a high standard of care and rehabilitation.

Our Rehabilitation Support Workers and Clinical Team thrive on working together to enable our service users to be as independent as possible and achieve their rehabilitation goals.

We will train you to provide personalised support to our adult residents. You will follow individual support plans to meet the needs and aspirations of each person.

The focus is developing independent living skills:
personal hygiene, meal preparation, exercise, leisure activities, socialising - the daily routine of regular life.

You'll get huge job satisfaction from seeing the people you are supporting do more for themselves and live the life they want to live.

If you're interested in building a career, we're here to support you all the way on your own journey.
