Job Description

ND Care & Support
Are you looking for meaningful weekend work where you can make a real difference in people’s lives?
At ND Care & Support, we’re seeking compassionate and reliable individuals in the Bridgend area to provide care and support to people in their own homes — helping them live independently, safely, and with dignity.
Whether you have previous experience or you’re new to care, we’ll support you with full training and a warm, professional team environment.
As a registered provider with Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW), we pride ourselves on delivering high-quality care — thanks to dedicated carers like you.
Make a difference this weekend. Be the difference. Join ND Care & Support.

About The Role:

  • Personal Care: Assisting clients with everyday tasks like bathing, dressing, and grooming.
  • Medication Assistance: Helping clients manage their medication as needed.
  • Food Preparation: Supporting clients with meal preparation to ensure they’re eating healthily.
  • Light Domestic Tasks: Helping with cleaning, laundry, and tidying up around the home.
  • Companionship & Emotional Support: Offering a caring presence to make clients feel valued and supported.
  • Driving Between Clients: A full UK Driving license or an international driving license and your own car are required.

What We Offer:

  • Competitive Pay: £14.12 per hour on weekdays, £14.68 per hour on weekends (please note, this rate includes your rolled-up holiday pay).
  • Flexible Hours: Choose from full-time or part-time positions that suit your schedule, offering the perfect balance between work and life.
  • Mileage & Travel Pay: Get reimbursed for travel expenses, including 25p per mile, so you’re compensated for being on the road. Paid waiting time up to 29 minutes (at national minimum wage).
  • Additional Costs: We’ll cover the cost of your Enhanced DBS check, and Social Care Wales registration fee, and even provide a Blue Light Card—saving you over £70!
  • Paid Full Visits: We value your time, which is why we ensure you’re paid for the entire duration of each visit, not just the care time.
  • Free PPE & Uniforms: We’ve got you covered with free uniforms and PPE for your safety and comfort.
  • Comprehensive Training & Ongoing Support: We provide full induction training and ongoing support to ensure you feel fully prepared in your role. (Paid at national minimum wage during your 5-day induction and after 100 hours worked.)

Above all, we are looking for compassionate, kind-hearted people, who are dependable and always prepared to go that extra mile. If this is you, then we can’t wait to hear from you.

What ND Care & Support offers:

  • Regular work
  • Flexible shift patterns
  • Travel time, waiting time and mileage payments
  • Full paid visits, not minute by minute
  • Free PPE & uniform
  • Support to achieve Social Care Wales Registration
  • Ongoing training opportunities
