Before you spend time completing the application form, we would like bring
the following points to your attention:
All
our clients require their carers to drive - it is essential therefore
that you have a current driving licence for manual and automatic vehicles
which is valid in the UK/EC. NB - you do not need your own vehicle.
For
various reasons (including motor insurance and the issue of companionship),
our clients prefer their carers to be aged 21-45*.
You
must be able to work legally in the UK (e.g. by virtue of being a UK/EC
citizen, having a Working Holiday Visa, UK Ancestry Visa, be on the
BUNAC programme etc). If you are not sure you can work legally in the
UK, please contact your nearest British Embassy/High Commission for
information. As an employment agency, ORIGIN cannot obtain work permits
on your behalf.
You
must be available to work for a minimum of 4 months for the Respite
vacancies and 9-12 months for permanent assignments although, of course,
we hope you will stay with ORIGIN for a great deal longer than this.
Registration
is free of charge
Many
thanks
