“Honestly Naomi, not a single second felt like work to me…” ❤️

That’s the kind of feedback that makes us incredibly proud of what we do at GS Social Care Solutions.

One of our amazing teams recently spent a week away with a young person at the Lakes — making memories, exploring, laughing, having adventures and, most importantly, giving him a holiday to remember. 🏔️🌊❤️

For our staff, it wasn’t simply a week at work.

It was seeing a young person smile.
It was building relationships.
It was creating memories.
It was being part of something that genuinely matters.

And that’s what being a Residential Support Worker at GS is all about.

✨ Making a difference
❤️ Building meaningful relationships
🌈 Creating opportunities
👫 Being part of an incredible team
🏡 Helping young people experience life, not just be cared for

Could this be you?

If you’re caring, passionate, resilient and want a role where no two days are the same, we’d love to hear from you.

Learning Disability England have created “A Guide to Being a Gr8 Support Worker” and I think it sums up what good support is all about. ❤️

Read the guide here-https://www.learningdisabilityengland.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/5-Oct-26-up-to-date-Guide-to-being-a-Gr8-Support-Worker.pdf

Being a great Support Worker isn't just about doing tasks. It's about building relationships, listening, giving people choices, encouraging independence and helping people have a good life.

Sometimes it's the little things that make the biggest difference. 💙

Thank you to all our Support Workers for the difference you make every day. You do an amazing job! 👏❤️

🌟 Training Beyond GS! 🌟

Yesterday, Faye had the pleasure of delivering our Trauma-Informed Practice and Therapeutic Parenting training externally.

The session focuses on understanding how trauma can affect children’s behaviour and development, while helping those supporting them to respond with empathy, consistency and a therapeutic approach.

A brilliant day sharing knowledge and supporting others to make a positive difference! 💚

💙 Learning Disability Awareness Week 2026 💙

Throughout this week, we have shared some incredible stories about the amazing young people we support and the achievements they accomplish every day.
From overcoming personal challenges, embracing new experiences, building confidence, achieving goals and simply finding joy in everyday moments, each story has reminded us why we do what we do.

At GS Social Care, we are proud, passionate and inspired by the young people we support. They show us strength, resilience and determination every single day.

This year's message from Mencap is "Do You See Me?"
Our message back to the young people we support is simple:
💙 We see you 💙

We see your strengths, your personality, your achievements and your potential.
We see your abilities, not your disabilities.
We see the barriers that exist, and we will continue to challenge them.
We see your voices, your choices and your rights.
Most importantly, we will continue to stand beside you, advocate for you and fight for the opportunities, respect and inclusion that every person deserves.

We would also like to take this opportunity to thank our incredible staff team. Your compassion, dedication, patience and commitment make a real difference to the lives of the young people we support every single day. The stories shared this week are only possible because of the relationships you build, the care you provide and the belief you have in every young person's potential.

Thank you for everything you do. We are incredibly proud of our team and grateful for the passion and commitment you bring to GS Social Care.

Together, we will continue to see the person, celebrate their abilities and champion their future.

💙 Learning Disability Awareness Week – Celebrating some amazing people💙
Yvonne and Janette would like to talk about the young lady they support in her own home-

"What can we say about this amazing young lady?

Janette has supported this young lady for nearly 14 years and Yvonne for around 7 years, and both agree she is one of the most inspiring people they have ever had the privilege of supporting.

When Janette first became her support worker, she didn't have the strength to lift her head from her pillow, and, coupled with her complex health needs, was fully dependent on her care team. Although she is non-verbal, she communicates through her facial expressions and body language – especially when she gives you "the look", ha ha!

Over time, she has gained much more movement and is now strong enough to sit in her lounge chair. Despite the strong daily medications she takes and the seizures that can leave her exhausted and sleeping for long periods while she recovers, she continues to show incredible strength and resilience. As Janette says, she is one of the strongest people she knows.

Yvonne has witnessed so many positive changes during the years she has supported her. When she first started working with this young lady, she spent much of her day in bed and only really left home for hospital appointments or occasional trips around the estate. Fast forward to today, and she enjoys regular trips out and about in her community. Whether it's a taxi ride into town for a look around the shops, people watching, visiting the community hub, spending time in the sensory room or hydrotherapy pool, changing her books at the library, or visiting the park or garden centre, it is wonderful to see her experiencing things that many of us take for granted.

Both Janette and Yvonne describe this young lady as gentle, patient and incredibly determined, with a smile that melts your heart. They speak about the lessons she teaches everyone around her about appreciating life and focusing on what really matters.

As Yvonne says, it is an absolute privilege to support this amazing young lady. She truly is one of the strongest and most inspiring people you could ever meet.
