About You

You’ll either be experienced in creating, organising and delivering events and activities or have worked with elderly people in a residential setting. Either way you’ll be confident in engaging with residents to understand what they love to do, either as a group or one‑to‑one. You’ll be comfortable engaging with the local community to bring people in to enhance the activities programme and ensure residents receive added stimulation from life outside the home. You’ll also encourage team members, relatives and friends to participate in the activities and events you organise. If you have the right skills and attitude, you could be the next Activities Co‑ordinator to join us. Apply and start your career with us today.
