Isaac is a carpenter by trade, and he has a workshop at home where he continues to enjoy woodwork. He has a gym and swimming pool also on site. In 2019 Isaac sustained a TBI and complex orthopaedic injuries following a RTA; he is a full-time wheelchair user (self-propel wheelchair and powered wheelchair on site).

Overview of role: Isaac’s team provide 2:1 support most days and 1:1 care at night, he sleeps very well so rarely requires any support throughout the night shift.

The rota is provided 4 weeks in advance, and you must be available for a minimum of 3-day shifts per week.
Who this job would suit: Due to the location, you must be a driver with your own car (limited public transport links available). Someone full of enthusiasm and positivity, intuitive, knowing when to step in and take a step back, giving Isaac and his family their own time.
What’s great about this job: This role comes highly recommended by Isaac’s team, a truly rewarding position supporting a gentleman and his supportive family.
