Have you heard about You Can Care Week?
From 12th – 18th February, this special awareness week celebrates the life-changing opportunities within social care – shining a spotlight on the incredible difference compassionate people like you can make.
Whether you’ve never considered a career in care or have always felt drawn to helping others, this is your chance to explore a role where every day is an opportunity to change lives.
Social care is so much more than just a job. It’s about building meaningful relationships, creating moments of joy, and making a real impact. From helping someone with disabilities regain their independence, to bringing comfort to someone living with dementia, to offering encouragement to someone struggling with their mental health – every action can transform lives, including your own.
Why Choose a Career in Social Care?
You often don’t need formal training or prior experience to thrive in social care.
What matters most is who you are.
Compassion, patience, and empathy are the qualities that make a great caretaker. Do you love helping others? Are you someone who brings a smile to people’s faces or lifts their spirits?
If so, you already have the foundation for an incredible career in care. Many of our team members found their calling in care unexpectedly. Could this be your moment too?
