Support Workers – South Tyneside
Are you passionate about making a difference? Our services operate 24/7, supporting individuals in their homes and communities. We’re looking for caring, enthusiastic Support Workers to help clients with everyday activities like shopping, dining out, and attending local events.
If you enjoy baking, gardening, crafts, or know your way around public transport, your skills could make a real impact. We offer a range of shifts including days, weekends, and sleep-ins—so flexibility is essential.
We’re recruiting across Supported Living and Outreach services. A driving licence is desirable but not essential.
At St Anne’s Community Services, we support nearly 2,000 vulnerable adults across the North of England. Our team is PROUD—Person-Centred, Respectful, Open, Understanding, and Dedicated. Join us in helping people live their best possible lives.

Person Centred - Prepare person-centred support plans with clients which reflect their views and aspirations and respect their beliefs and opinions, reviewing and amending them as necessary and considering the client’s changing needs and wishes.
Respectful - Support clients to fulfil their aspirations, supporting them to live as independently as possible, in accordance with their skills and abilities. This may include accompanying them on social visits and events, supporting them with their interests and hobbies, promoting choice, arranging activities and outings, and developing their skills and knowledge.
Open - Communicate in an open and transparent way with clients and other team members, acting with integrity and doing what you say that you will do. Support quality inspection processes, cooperating with on-site inspectors in relation to information requests.
Understanding - Where required to provide personal care to clients in a way that respects their choices and dignity, including assistance with washing, bathing, toileting, and continence.
