You'll be supporting a vibrant, fun-loving lady with learning disabilities and autism who is excited to welcome a new Support Worker. She's looking for someone she can build a strong, trusting bond with — someone active, upbeat, and ready to help her live life on her terms.

What she loves:

  • Active days out - swimming, trampolining, long walks
  • Fashion & pampering - she enjoys giving makeovers just as much as receiving them
  • Creative hobbies - photography, sticker books, and using her iPad/IT equipment
  • Disney everything - you will be given a Disney character name by the team
  • Baking & food - she loves learning new recipes and exploring healthy eating

What she wants you to know:

Some nights she doesn't sleep well. On those days, plans may change and she'll need a quieter, more relaxed pace - chilling with her iPad or watching her favourite YouTube videos. You'll also be working alongside another Support Worker, ensuring she always feels supported and safe.

Responsibilities:

  • Promoting independence and confidence
  • Meal preparation and encouraging healthy choices
  • Supporting with personal care
  • Managing finances
  • Planning fun, meaningful activities

Shift Pattern: 08:00-20:00 plus one sleep-in per week. Sleep-in allowance: £50 per shift.

Driving: Full UK/EU licence essential (you'll be driving an automatic mobility vehicle).
