7284 Assistant Project Workers - Choices for Children Home Links Service

Short break care (sometimes called respite care) gives children an opportunity to have fun, share experiences and socialise outside of their home life while giving their parents or carers a brief break from caring. Home Links works in partnership with Belfast Health & Social Care Trust and provides support to children living in the greater Belfast area.

We require staff to work two or three afternoons per week after school time. Each afternoon session is 3.25 hours long: this includes transportation, play support and completion of a daily report. You will work on a one to one basis with your allocated child alongside other staff in a small group after school club at our premises on the Belmont Road. The role includes transporting the child from home or school and home again so you will require a full driving licence and access to a car. You will receive mileage expenses, training and ongoing support.
