“I applied for my first care role
during the first national
lockdown, and it has surpassed
all my expectations.

Overall, it is an honour to
provide care for people,
especially when you can
bring a smile their faces.”

Beenish

Kingswood,
South Gloucestershire

“I came into care because I like to
help people in need and making
their lives that little bit easier.

It gives you a sense of
achievement not felt in
any other job.”

Karen

Weston-super-Mare,
North Somerset

“I got an apprenticeship as a
care assistant at 16, and thanks
to encouragement from a fantastic
team, I am now team leader.

Looking after people is my
passion: it can change your
life as much as you can
change theirs.”

Grace

Kingswood,
South Gloucestershire

“I was looking for part-time work
to fund myself while at college.
At first I wasn’t sure if I would
like the job, but since starting,
my outlook has changed.

I love knowing I can make
someone feel better about
themselves.”

Ryan

Yate,
South Gloucestershire

“I knew I was going to work
in care when I started
doing my Level 2 and 3 in
Health and Social care
in college.

It made me want to
make other people’s
lives better.”

Casey,

Staple Hill, Bristol

“My favourite part of the job
is knowing that I have helped
someone, making their
day that bit easier.

I chose this career
because I enjoy
working with
and helping people.
My job fits around
being a mum.”

Jo

Clevedon,
North Somerset

“I began my career in the
prison service and then moved
into social care.

Care is about enriching others
and knowing you are making
a difference, no matter
how small.”

Craig

Staple Hill, Bristol

“I ventured into care after having
my twins, working nightshifts
at first then progressing
to manager.

I love coming to work. It is a joy
to chat with residents, they are
full of fantastic stories. “
