At ADSS we don't just support people with dementia, we also support the professionals who care for them.
Join a team that cares for you!
At ADSS, joining our team means more than starting a new job or volunteering role - it means becoming part of a community that has been changing lives for 35 years. We're proud of our award-winning reputation, but it's our people who make the real difference. If you're looking for a role where you'll be valued, supported and empowered to make a meaningful impact, we'd love to welcome you as we build on 35 years of changing lives and shape the next chapter together.
I decided to become a volunteer at ADSS as I am retired and thought it would be good to offer my services. I had no experience with people with dementia, so it has all been a new experience for me. I completed the training last year and now help at the Beacon and also at a couple of drop-ins for coffee at Shorne and other village halls each month. I enjoy having contact with the people and find it a pleasure to help with the activities. The team that I am with works endlessly, taking care of the needs of the people, which vary considerably. No task seems to be too much for them.

There is a positive work culture here: everyone is so friendly and kind to each other as employees. Being person-centred and caring is very important for this role, as a value I think it is one of the most important. We are supporting people daily with their needs and getting to know them individually.
