Working across Berkshire, Surrey Heath, Farnham & North-East Hampshire
If your idea of a great day at work involves leading a walk in the countryside, singing with a group, trying a new activity, supporting someone to regain confidence and finishing the day knowing you've genuinely made a difference, we'd love to hear from you.
At Younger People with Dementia (YPWD), we support adults diagnosed with young onset dementia (diagnosed under the age of 65) to remain active, connected and independent through meaningful activities, one-to-one support and community programmes.
This isn't a personal care role. It's about helping people continue to live well, enjoy life and do the things that matter most to them.
What You'll Do
As part of our friendly and supportive team, you'll help deliver a wide range of engaging activities, from art, walking and singing to katakanuing, reader groups and community outings. You'll also provide one-to-one support, help plan future sessions and complete the records that enable us to deliver safe, high-quality services.
No two days are the same, and we're looking for someone who enjoys variety, uses their initiative and loves helping others have fun.
About You
We're looking for someone who:
- Is kind, compassionate and approachable.
- Enjoys being active, creative and making people smile.
- Builds positive relationships and communicates well.
- Is organised and understands the importance of accurate record keeping.
- Is confident using IT, including email and Microsoft Office.
- Is reliable, adaptable and happy to get stuck in.
- Enjoys working independently but knows that great teamwork delivers the best outcomes.
You don't need to be an expert in dementia, we can teach that. What matters most is your attitude, your values and your willingness to learn.
The Kind of Person Who Thrives Here
At YPWD, our values are Inclusive, Supportive, Enabling and Innovative. They're not just words on a wall, they shape how we work every day.
We work hard, laugh often, support each other and leave egos at the door. We value people who are kind, humble and willing to roll up their sleeves when needed. We communicate openly, celebrate each other's successes and focus on finding solutions rather than blame.
If you're someone who enjoys being part of a team, brings a positive attitude and wants to make a genuine difference, you'll fit right in.
If you're looking for workplace politics, unnecessary drama or somewhere to simply 'do your hours', we're probably not the right organisation for you. If you're looking for meaningful work with great people, we'd love to hear from you.

- Full UK driving licence.
- Daily access to a roadworthy vehicle insured for business use.
- Willingness to travel across Berkshire, Surrey Heath, Farnham and North East Hampshire.
