We have been providing services to people with a sensory loss for over 170 years and are established as one of the key providers of services for both older and younger adults with a visual impairment.

Today we support more than 180 people in a range of services including supported living, extra care, housing with care and small care homes.
About you
You will be passionate about delivering good quality personalised Care and Support and would value working in a small organisation which will give you the support to flourish.

You will have proven experience of leading and motivating a team in a comparable service and an appropriate care qualification. For the registered post you will need QCF Level 5 in Care/Management (OR NVQ Level 4 / Registered Manager’s Award or equivalent).
