Company Description

Looking for meaningful work where you can make a real difference close to home?

At Home Instead Shrewsbury, we’re proud to support older people living in Oswestry, Baschurch, and nearby villages to stay independent and happy in the homes they love.

  • Taking a client into Oswestry for a market day, a coffee, or a stroll around town 

  • Supporting someone in Baschurch with mobility, medication, or personal care 

  • Helping with meal preparation or light household tasks 

  • Or simply providing companionship, laughter, and a listening ear

  • No formal qualifications are required – just kindness and empathy

  • A full UK driving licence is desirable to support clients across Oswestry, Baschurch, and surrounding villages

  • Flexibility to work across weekdays, evenings, and some weekends

We’ll give you all the training you need and can support you to progress through health & social care qualifications if you’d like to grow further.
