Meet Elliot, a Care Worker at one of our homes

This is Elliot. He works with younger children aged 7 to 11 who require a period of residential care to help them to safely overcome negative experiences.

How long have you been working at Five Rivers, Elliot?
I have been at this House for just over 1 year. I recently received a shiny badge and thank you letter to prove it!

What’s the best thing about your job?
I love going out on activities with the young people and seeing them makes me happy. I also like being able to support them through their difficult times, which in return, gives me great job satisfaction.

What makes this a good residential care service?
We try to be intuitive to young people’s needs and get to know them, using our engagement skills to make them feel safe and secure.

Tell us something fun about you:
I make music that has been featured on BBC Radio 1 and other international radio stations. I have DJ’d in some top nightclubs too!
