MEMBERS of the Dorset community are being given the chance to work alongside disabled adults, enabling them to live in their own homes.

Diverse Abilities Plus wants to recruit more staff for its supported living team and is holding a recruitment event from 9am to 3pm on Saturday, April 26 at the charity’s central office near Tower Park.

Some 35 adults are currently supported by Diverse Abilities Plus to live as independently as possible in their own home and get out and about in the local community.

No experience is necessary for the roles as all staff have the chance to gain qualifications, such as a diploma level three in health and social care, and full training is provided in-house.

At the recruitment event, attendees will have the opportunity to speak with representatives from the charity and find out what it is like to work for Diverse Abilities Plus, while meeting a number of adults currently supported by the charity.

Full details of how to apply will also be available on the day.

The event will be held at the charity’s head office at Unit C, Acorn Business Park, Ling Road, Poole BH12 4NZ.
