Shared Lives South West

As an award-winning charity with 20 years of experience, Shared Lives South West matches adults with learning disabilities, autism, mental health problems, and dementia to trained Shared Lives Carers.

Over the years Shared Lives South West- which operates across Devon, Cornwall and Somerset- has grown and evolved its services and offers both long-term placements and short breaks. You can find out more about our services here.
The 40 strong Shared Lives South West staff team is dedicated to ensuring we recruit and train carers and create top-quality matches for placements to blossom.

We are also proud to have a funding and benefits team to assist those who use our services and reduce the paperwork so Shared Lives Carers can focus on care and support.

Become a Carer

Having a carer job at Shared Lives South West is akin to adult fostering where we promote people to maintain and grow their independence. We provide people with an alternative to supported living and residential care in a family home.
