Make a Real Difference in People's Lives

Working in rehabilitation is unlike any other support role. As a Community Support Worker, you'll play a vital part in helping individuals rebuild their independence, confidence, and everyday life skills following a brain injury.

You'll walk alongside people on their recovery journey - celebrating milestones, overcoming challenges, and supporting them to achieve their personal goals. Many of the individuals we support stay with us for around three months, giving you the opportunity to make a meaningful impact in a short but powerful time.

About Us

We are Brainkind, a national charity dedicated to improving the lives of people with brain injuries across the UK. Through our specialist rehabilitation services, we support individuals recovering from trauma, illness, and other neurological conditions to regain lost skills and live independently.

Our teams are passionate, supportive, and driven by a shared purpose - you'll be joining a workplace where teamwork, compassion, and respect are at the heart of everything we do.

The Role

As a Support Worker, you will:

• Deliver person-centred support to adult residents
• Follow tailored rehabilitation plans to meet individual goals
• Support with daily living skills, including:
• Personal care and hygiene
• Meal preparation
• Exercise and wellbeing
• Social and leisure activities
• Encourage independence and build confidence
• Work closely with a multidisciplinary team to achieve the best outcomes

This is a rewarding role where you'll see real progress and gain a strong sense of achievement from helping others live more independently.

About You

You don't need previous experience - we'll provide full training. What matters most is your values and attitude.

We're looking for someone who:

• Has empathy, patience, and resilience
• Is positive and motivated to support others
• Enjoys working as part of a team
• Has strong communication and interpersonal skills
• Can manage time effectively and prioritise tasks

If you care about making a difference and are eager to learn, we'll support you every step of the way.
