Equal Care Co-op

Equal Care Co-op Putting the power of care and support back in the hands of those who give and receive it.

Equal Care Co-op is a care and support co-operative, currently operating in Calderdale in West Yorkshire and in Hackney, London. We facilitate caregiving relationships, focusing on the quality of the caring relationships going on in people's lives and helping them to flourish. We are registered with the Care Quality Commission and we offer a broad variety of support to adults of all ages at home and in the community. We have experience working with conditions such as dementia, Parkinson's and MND and we work with people who are neurodivergent. We think that the quality of the caring relationships in people's lives are the single biggest factor in both getting and giving excellent care and support. People getting support choose who supports them and people giving support do too. We work on the basis of consent and mutual care and we aim for brave, honest and kind in the way we approach support.

Imagine a kind of care you can depend on - steady from day to day.

Imagine a kind of care where you get to know someone and share in their life, memories, and passions.

Imagine a kind of care that goes beyond the routine - one that recognises you as a person with social and emotional needs, looking for connection.

Imagine a kind of care where people don’t just get by, but flourish.

If, like us, you imagine a better kind of care - and want to see and feel what that looks like - we’d love to talk to you.

If you have experience in care and support – particularly supporting autistic people or people with a PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance) profile – and you’re looking for work in Hebden Bridge, we’d love to chat with you!

There are plenty of hours available for people with the right experience and approach, and there may be two or three positions available within one team alone.

As a co-op that puts the relationship between the person giving and the person receiving support at the centre of everything we do, we work a little differently from other agencies. We’re changing the way care and support are understood and experienced.

We’re also a Real Living Wage Employer and offer free online training during onboarding, so you can work towards your Care Certificate even before you start.

πŸ’š Join a care co-operative where you can work with us, not for us.

The online platform allows users to create a profile which stores vital information such as photographs and medication required and is immediately accessible to the police in the event they go missing.

It is a digital version of the Herbert Protocol and can be regularly updated, increasing the chances of a successful search.
