With over a decade of experience, at Roar – Connections for Life, our highly experienced team works with hundreds of older adults across Renfrewshire. Understanding the problems of loneliness, social isolation and falls prevention in old age has led us to success, both in working across the generations and providing that crucial one to one support. We offer a wide range of services to help with a myriad of aging issues.

We are currently recruiting for Nail Technicians for our vital toenail trimming service (Roar Do Feet), which runs throughout venues in Renfrewshire. Demand for our footcare service is higher than ever and coming out of lockdown, and we are still seeing a huge number of appointment requests.

NHS entitlement to toenail cutting for older people changed and most older people now need to make their own arrangements to have their nails cut. Roar works in partnership with the NHS to deliver a basic footcare service to people and we need caring committed technicians to help to meet demand.

This opportunity will provide you with full training and support and will be a chance to gain skills and experience that can benefit both your personal and professional life. By joining the footcare team at Roar you will be helping older people to look after their feet, enabling them to keep active, avoid falls and stay independent.

Training can only be used at Roar Service delivery.

Applicants must be available to work on Wednesday and Thursday morning's between 9am and 1pm and the occasional Friday morning in Renfrewshire.

Travel expenses will also be covered.
