Who are we?

Choice Care is one of the UK’s leading residential care providers for people with learning disabilities, autism and mental health conditions. With over 30 years’ experience, we’re at the forefront of national best practice, with among the highest CQC ratings of any comparable organisation.

Our homes are more than just a place to live, they’re like a second family for everyone we support. Each home is a close knit community, with its own unique personality, and all the ups and downs of typical family life, built on trust and the promise of unconditional care. Our colleagues build close bonds with the people they care for, helping to create enduring, positive relationships that build confidence and self-esteem.

In every Choice Care home there’s a strong emphasis on living life to the full and having fun, with purposeful daily activities based on individual preferences and capabilities. Alongside this there are regular social events, projects, outings and holiday breaks which everyone can get involved in and express themselves through.

Where will you work?

Ciderstone House, in Swindon, provides residential care and support for six young men and women with learning disabilities, autism and associated behavioural and emotional needs. The home is staffed 24-hours a day and each resident is supported to get involved in a range of activities of their own choice, both at the home and out in the community, to develop self-confidence and independence, including: cycling, trampolining, sailing, massage classes, trips to the cinema and a regular Friday evening disco. The home is within easy reach of local amenities, two miles from the centre of Swindon, and there is a vehicle available for local visits and outings further afield.
