It’s a common misconception that care work is poorly paid, but these jobs show that many organisations pay more than supermarket or restaurant work.
Ellie Bolton is 17 and works part time as a care worker at Coombe House while she completes her BTEC national diploma in health and social care. She said: “I started off doing the job as a college work placement and now I can’t picture myself doing anything else. I completely fell in love with it. At the start I thought no, I never want to do that ever but now I never want to do anything different. I love it.”
