HUNDREDS OF JOBS ARE AVAILABLE IN THE CITY
Drive to recruit care workers

A NEW campaign highlighting the variety of career opportunities available in the adult social care sector has launched in Plymouth.

The campaign is run by the Plymouth City Council-led Caring Plymouth partnership, which works to connect local people with opportunities for skills, training, education, jobs in health and adult social care.

Caring Plymouth launched last year and aims to support the need for a sustainable, skilled workforce in the sector.

The partnership's initial focus is to tackle staff recruitment and retention in adult social care through raising awareness of the opportunities of working in domiciliary care, care homes and supported living as there are currently hundreds of vacancies in the city, with more than 50 career pathways to choose from.

There are lots of job and training opportunities available, with options to suit a range of lifestyles, skills and experience.
