Job reference: CW WN ED

We are looking for an energetic, reliable and caring individual to assist with our 17 year old son. He has autism and a learning disability and is non-verbal, but he’s very smiley and responsive to the right person.

We’re looking for someone who is free to work up to 8 hours per week over the weekend, eg on Friday evenings and/or weekend mornings or afternoons. We’re also looking for help during the school holidays.

Our son enjoys trips to the playground, the beach, the museum and the zoo, and he loves musical instruments. He has no awareness of road safety and needs close supervision at all times. He also requires assistance with his personal care needs.

The rate of pay is £17.50-20/hour, depending on experience and the position is available from September 2026.

We’re looking for someone with experience of working with a young person with a learning disability, and who is a PVG scheme member or willing to join the scheme. References will be required.

Many thanks!
