Full-time, Part-time & Bank Opportunities
Please note: We are currently unable to offer visa sponsorship.
Join a friendly, family-run care company where your time is valued.
Bramble Homecare is looking for kind, reliable and caring people to join our team supporting people in their own homes across Cinderford and the surrounding areas.
No previous care experience? No problem. If you have the right attitude and genuinely enjoy helping people, we’ll provide the training and support you need.
We offer two different types of community care work:
BLOCK WORK – £14.25 PER HOUR
With block work, you are paid for every hour of your allocated block – not just the time you spend inside clients’ homes.
For example, if you’re allocated a 7am–2pm block, you’re paid for all 7 hours, including the time travelling between your scheduled care visits.
Block lengths can vary depending on the care required. For example, a block may be 7am–12pm, 7am–1pm or 7am–2pm, but you are paid for every hour of the block you are allocated and work.
WEEKEND FRAMEWORK WORK – £18.25 PER HOUR
Framework care is paid at £18.25 per hour for the time you spend providing care to clients (contact time).
You’ll also receive 35p per mile mileage allowance.
The £14.25 and £18.25 rates are different ways of working
What You’ll Be Doing
You’ll visit people in their own homes and help them remain safe, comfortable and independent.
Your day could include supporting someone to get washed and dressed, preparing meals, helping with medication or personal care, providing companionship, or simply having a cup of tea and a chat.
Sometimes it’s the smallest things that make the biggest difference to someone’s day.
What We Offer :
£14.25 per hour – paid for every hour of your allocated Block Work
£18.25 per hour – Framework contact time
35p per mile mileage allowance
Paid training
Full support for people new to care
Ongoing training and development
Opportunities to gain Health & Social Care qualifications
Career progression opportunities
Full-time, part-time and bank opportunities
Friendly and approachable local management
The support of a family-run care company
What We’re Looking For :
Experience isn’t essential. We’re much more interested in finding people who are kind, dependable, patient and genuinely want to help others.
You will need a UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle, as you’ll be travelling to clients’ homes.
You must also have the right to work in the UK.
Why Join Bramble Homecare?
We’re a family-run business, and we believe our carers should feel valued, supported and part of the team.
