Bury Care Academy

Are you a driver considering a career change? We'd love to talk. 🚗

At Bury Care Academy, we're on a mission to connect people with meaningful work in home care, and right now, drivers are exactly what local providers across Bury need. If you hold a driving licence, you already have one of the most sought-after qualities in the sector.

Home care routes are short and local, the hours are flexible, and no previous experience or qualifications are required to get started. This Wednesday, our team will be at the Ingeus Hub in the Mill Gate Shopping Centre, Bury, for a free drop-in-careers session.

Whether you're a delivery driver, HGV driver, or simply someone who's ready for work that feels more rewarding, come and have a conversation with us.

Wednesday 10th June
10:30 - 15:30
Ingeus Hub, Mill Gate Shopping Centre

Blessing said, 'I found the experience really good, friendly staff, and very helpful. I am happy to find a job at Alexander Care Home. I cannot wait to start my career in care. Thank you all!'

Bury Care Academy has now supported 100 people into careers in care since our doors opened last year. Every single one of them matters to a workforce so often left to fend for itself. We're so proud of every single person we've seen through this process, and we can't wait to see where the journey takes us next. 💙
