At My Life, we're all about making a real difference in people's lives through our passionate and inspirational teams. Here, you won't just be working a job; you'll be contributing to meaningful community-based work that positively impacts lives every day.
My Life was established in 2012 as a result of a group of people with disabilities and their families wanting something different to traditional types of health/social care services and wanting more choice and control over their own lives. We pride ourselves on being a unique service. We offer personalised support to a diverse range of individuals living in their own homes. Each person has their own dedicated team, delivering support that's tailored specifically to their needs and preferences. This isn't a one-size-fits-all approach--it's about making sense for them and making a difference.
