Job summary

Well-Being Coordinator (Activities Coordinator)

Part-Time | Monday to Friday | £12.60 per hour | Permanent

?? Ashton Park Care Home – Newport Town Centre

At Ashton Park Care Home, we believe that every moment matters.

We are a small, welcoming residential care home supporting 17 wonderful residents living with a diagnosis of dementia and varying care needs. Our home is built on kindness, dignity, laughter, and meaningful connection — and we are now looking for a Well-Being Coordinator to bring energy, creativity, and joy into daily life at Ashton Park.

?? About the Role

This is not just an activities job — it’s an opportunity to make a genuine difference every single day.

As our Well-Being Coordinator, you will:

  • Support residents to live engaging and independent lives

  • Create fun, meaningful weekday activities (Monday–Friday)

  • Provide emotional support and nurture feelings of purpose and self-worth

  • Organise group and one-to-one sessions tailored to individual interests

  • Encourage reminiscence, creativity, music, movement, and connection

  • Help make every day special — whether through small moments or larger themed events

You’ll have the freedom to bring your own ideas to life and truly shape the role.

?? Who We’re Looking For

We are searching for someone who is:

  • Energetic and enthusiastic

  • Full of creative and fun ideas

  • Warm, compassionate, and patient

  • Naturally positive and encouraging

  • Passionate about making people smile

No previous experience is required.
If you have the right heart and attitude, we will provide the training and support you need.

This role would suit someone with a background in childcare, hospitality, community work, performing arts, or simply someone who loves connecting with people.

?? What We Offer

  • £12.60 per hour

  • Part-time hours (Monday–Friday)

  • Permanent position

  • Full training provided

  • A supportive and friendly team

  • The chance to build meaningful relationships

  • The opportunity to truly make a difference

At Ashton Park, we understand that living with dementia does not take away a person’s need for joy, purpose, or belonging. We are looking for someone who sees the person beyond the diagnosis — someone who believes that laughter, music, conversation, and kindness are just as important as care.

If you want a role where your ideas matter, your creativity is welcomed, and your work has real impact, we would love to hear from you.

Come and help us fill our home with moments that matter.
