Make a real difference to other people’s lives with a role in the care sector

DO YOU care enough to be a carer?

It’s one of the most vital roles in society yet 100,000 vacancies lie open in the sector — and thousands more may be added as the “no jab, no job” policy hits staffing levels.

The Government has launched the Made With Care campaign highlighting positives of the job, including flexible hours and a real sense of purpose.

Research from care firm Anchor shows that public perception of the care sector has improved due to the pandemic, with many people wanting to see “parity of esteem” for the social care sector with the NHS.

Although starting pay can be low, rates are rising.

Roles offer hours to suit you, job security and the chance to make a real difference to others’ lives.

If you want to move into management, progression can be fast.

Jane Ashcroft CBE, Chief Executive of Anchor, said: “For too long, people working in social care have been unsung heroes.

"Social care has been the backbone of our nation during the pandemic, and can provide a meaningful, challenging and fulfilling career.”
