These are ongoing self-employed opportunities rather than a single role. Carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own rates. Typical rates on the platform are £18.80–£20 per hour. You choose the clients you want to work with, the hours you accept and the area you cover, whether that’s South Kirkby, Moorthorpe or nearby places such as South Elmsall, Hemsworth, Brierley, Featherstone, Wombwell and Wath upon Dearne.

The practical daytime tasks are straightforward: help with washing and dressing, meal preparation, supporting medication routines, short errands and staying with someone for companionship while they go about their day.
