Description

Join PrimeCarers to provide short-term respite care in and around Llangors. These weekend and short-stay roles give family carers a break — from a few hours in the evening to overnight cover or a couple of days at a time. The work is varied: companionship, personal care, medication prompting and keeping people safe while their family take time off. You remain self-employed and choose the work that fits your life in Powys and nearby communities.

New care jobs in the area are posted on PrimeCarers throughout the year.

This kind of respite work suits experienced carers who want flexibility without agency constraints. You decide which clients to accept, the hours you’ll do and your service area. Many carers set their own rates and find the variety rewarding; typical pay for this kind of work is around £18.50–£20 per hour depending on needs and experience. Weekend respite can be ideal if you prefer blocks of time or ad hoc shifts rather than fixed rotas. Llangors families often need reliable, short-term help at weekends and during school holidays.

PrimeCarers takes care of the admin so you can focus on care. We introduce you to families, manage contracts, handle invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you work. That means fewer forms and no agency rota pressure. You remain fully self-employed: set your rates, select clients and decide when you work across Llangors, Talgarth and the wider area.

  • Who we’re looking for: at least 1 year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, verifiable references and an Enhanced DBS check. PrimeCarers can help arrange a DBS if you need one.
  • Typical duties: personal care, safe mobility assistance, companionship, mealtime support and short-term overnight or day respite during weekends.
  • Area: work based in Llangors and neighbouring communities such as Talgarth, Brecon, Crickhowell, Hay on Wye, Brynmawr and Tafarnaubach, with travel chosen by you.

Applying takes minutes: create your profile, add your experience and references, and upload or request an Enhanced DBS. Profiles typically go live within days after verification, so you can start seeing short-term and weekend opportunities in Llangors and across Powys quickly. We’ll match you with families looking for reliable respite care while you stay in control.
