Job Advert Location Description

Laburnum House is situated in Folkestone, in Kent. It offers residential support for six males and females who have a primary learning disability diagnosis, including people who are autistic or have Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS). The home is ideally placed on a residential street near the town centre.

We offer a safe and homely environment, where all the people we care for can make their own choices about the support they receive. We encourage and support everyone at Laburnum House to recognise and identify their goals and ambitions, and we will support them to meet them.

We can also support those who have:

Job Advert Role Description

As a Support Worker you will be a key member of our team, providing high standards of person-centred support and care to our service users. Through a creative and caring approach, you will build good relationships with both service users and their families, supporting service users in the planning of goals and in living as independently as possible.
