Birmingham, United Kingdom Penderels Trust Full time

**About** the Employer**:
I am a 29-year-old woman and I have autism, anxiety and depression which makes life difficult. You will be helping me manage things such as cooking, maintaining my home and supporting me to achieve my goals. No intimate personal care is involved. I’m friendly, respectful, and experienced in communicating my needs as a disabled person.

**Summary** of Duties**:
You arrive on time and ready to work. If you are late, you phone me as soon as you can and say when you expect to arrive. When you arrive, we might start with making a list of tasks, or we might go straight into doing an activity if I have made a list prior to your arrival. In an afternoon, you might help me prepare food for meals. I may need you to do all the prep or just some of it while I do the rest, depending on my energy levels that day.

Other tasks include prompting me to do laundry / take meds / go shopping / exercise etc.

Outside the home - accompanying me to the shops either by car or walking (the shops aren’t far but it depends on my energy levels again), accompanying me for short walks around the neighbourhood, any essential appointments.

Remote online support - talking through tasks with me, or help with finances and paperwork - this can be done from your home over video call. This is likely to occur on very low energy days.

The role will be adapted to suit your strengths. It may involve emotional support or may be purely practical. The aim is 8 hours a week of you taking over activities that tire me, to help me focus on important tasks, assist me in sticking to goals I have set for myself, and to have a good quality of life.

My needs may vary from day to day and your tasks may reflect this. You could be required to perform other duties as reasonably required.

You may be required to undertake any training that is considered necessary and appropriate to your role.

**The Person** They Are Looking For**:
**Essential Criteria**

Self-motivated

Enjoys cooking and baking

Able to set and maintain interpersonal boundaries

Punctual and ready to work

Understanding of autism in adults

Non smoker

**Preferred criteria**

Driving license

Covid-safe approach

**How To Apply**
