Johnston Way comprises 2 dwellings that are each home to four adult males who have complex behavioural support needs and who require support to increase personal independence and enhance their quality of life.


Due to rapid continual growth and development, a fantastic opportunity has arisen for a Bank Positive Behaviour Support Assistant  to join our Night team within the supported living service for individuals with learning disability, autism and complex behaviours.  We are looking for confident, calm and compassionate people who can provide meaningful support.


The Bank Night Support Assistant is part of a team whose responsibility is to meet the practical, physical and emotional needs of individuals in receipt of services within the Cedar Foundation Supported Living Schemes.
