    The work: supported living, not a care home

    These services support adults with learning disabilities and autistic adults to live in their own homes — small houses in ordinary streets, not wards or units. A shift might be cooking together, getting out to the shops or the beach, support with medication and appointments, or just being steady company through the routines that make independent living work. It asks for patience, consistency and genuine warmth more than clinical skills — many of the best support workers came from hospitality or retail, not healthcare.

    The core of the work is around Newquay and St Columb, with further shifts across Cornwall including the Liskeard area. Almost everything here is daytime work, which makes it one of the more family-friendly blocks of shifts we have anywhere.

    Pay: PAYE only, with your rate shown before you accept

    All of these shifts are PAYE only — no umbrella company, no limited company, nothing to set up. Your tax and National Insurance are handled at source and you accrue holiday pay. Rates vary by location and shift, so rather than print a number here that may not match the shift you want, the exact rate for every shift is shown in the Novello app before you accept it. Register to see what the shifts near you pay, or call the team on 0333 307 8897 and we will tell you over the phone.
