Do You Have What It Takes to be a Support Worker? Take our quiz and find out if a new career as a support worker is right for you! As a support worker with Dimensions you will be responsible for supporting people with learning disabilities and autism to have a great life. You won’t just care for them; you’ll support them to achieve their goals, and have as much choice and independence as possible; some of the many reasons the role of a support worker can bring enormous job satisfaction. “If someone told me it isn’t a meaningful role, I would invite them to learn more about it. To be a good support worker, you need to have a kind and caring nature, and also be resilient. It can be hard, but you have a support network, and you can ask for help.” – Ailish Ingham, Assistant Locality Manager & support worker

We've achieved the Silver TIDE assessment award for diversity and inclusion! We’re delighted to achieve a Silver TIDE (Talent, Inclusion and Diversity Evaluation) Award in our first year submitting an assessment. It’s part of our membership package with ONVERO (formerly the Employers Network for Equality and Inclusion). It measures an organisation’s work and strategies in adopting diversity and inclusion across a number of key areas. Head of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Lisa Govier said: “We achieved an overall score of 79%, assessed as being at the ‘working at embedding’ level. We’re one of only a very small handful of social care organisations to have been granted an award this year, scoring particularly highly in the categories of: • Leadership (91%) • Wellbeing and Belonging (91%) • and Employee Voice and Engagement (89%). Soon, a feedback session with ONVERO will help us identify areas to focus on in order to become more equal, inclusive and diverse.
