As part of a dedicated team at Angus Carers Centre, you will support carers by fostering meaningful relationships, ensuring their voices are heard, and empowering them to exercise their rights. You will collaborate with unpaid carers, and partner organisations to provide guidance, and engaging activities that enhance resilience, confidence, and social connections. Your role will also involve raising awareness, shaping services, and championing carers in decision-making processes.

Angus Carers Centre is a rights-based charity working with and for unpaid carers across Angus.

Why you should consider applying

“After our son’s diagnosis with Autism in 2012 Angus Carers Centre have been a lifeline from the moment I called. It was a like a small weight had been lifted. Knowing someone was there that understood what we were going through and to guide us in the right direction was encouraging. That is when we knew we wouldn't be alone in your journey with Autism.

Through the groups I have become friends with those in similar situations to ours, we have laughed (a-lot) and cried (a little) over the years.

I gained my confidence back, I grew a backbone, became better with confrontation and got to know and love our son for what he was and what he could achieve, not what he couldn’t.

Don’t get me wrong, there have been other groups/charities involved along the way which have also helped shape the young man our son is today but for me especially ACC has been paramount. So much so I became a volunteer, I was then known as Isabel and not Billy’s’ mum. Something that I had missed for a long time. I loved my Monday morning shifts on reception before lockdown. We all know how it feels when you get through to the Dr’s receptionist after the weekend. That was me but for carers. Not always the cheeriest of calls but I knew who could help them and they were soon directed to the correct care worker. It certainly made my Monday Morning.

Anyway enough about me, if you have made the call to ACC well done if not, what are you waiting for, help is there.” – carer & staff member

About Us

Established in 1996, Angus Carers Centre has grown significantly over the last 25 years, and we are now supporting over 1500 unpaid adult and young carers across Angus.

Reporting to the Adult Carers Service Manager, you will have a positive non-judgemental regard and help carers exercise their rights and support them to realise their potential.
