What if your job wasn’t just about keeping a kitchen running… but about helping someone feel truly at home?

At Peninsula Care Homes, we don’t believe moving into care should mean a smaller life. We believe it should mean a richer one - full of warmth, nourishment, and the small pleasures that make each day feel meaningful. And that only happens because of people like you.

As a Kitchen Porter at Bramble Down, you won’t just be supporting the kitchen team - you’ll be helping create moments of comfort, familiarity, and happiness for the people who live with us.

We call it our Rich Life Framework - but really, it’s a promise: that every person who lives with us deserves a home where they feel safe, respected and valued - and food plays a huge part in that.

We start with one simple question: “What helps this person feel most at home?” And as a team, we make it happen.

Sometimes it’s ensuring their favourite mug is always clean and ready.

Sometimes it’s helping the chef prepare a meal that carries a cherished memory.

Sometimes it’s the dignity of a dining room that feels calm, clean and welcoming.

As needs change, we adapt - not to limit life, but to make every mealtime easier, safer and more enjoyable. And at the end of each shift, we hope you’ll be able to ask yourself: “Did I help someone feel more at home today?”

If that question matters to you - you’ll belong here.

Our CARE values (Committed. Ambitious. Responsible. Embracing) are not just words. They shape how we treat residents, families, and each other. You’ll be part of a team that supports one another, celebrates small victories, and takes pride in making a real difference.
