**Ibk is a community based, not-for-profit social enterprise with over 20 years’ experience of providing Direct Payment Support to families, children and adults of all ages with a range of needs. We provide a bespoke matching service, finding the right PA for the right person**

IBK are supporting a family who are in search of a Befriender (PA) to work alongside a team of PA's to support their 30 year old daughter, who has Autism but (as per her own identity) specifically has Asperger's syndrome, as well as sensory needs.

The main focus for the Befriender is to be patient and sensitive individual to enable the young adult to follow routines to keep her safe and well and do the things she chooses.

Being an 'Eco warrior' this young adult enjoys recycling and trying to live a more environmentally friendly life by trying to change the way she lives and the way of doing things. She enjoys online shopping (although the budgeting side can be a struggle) as well as watching tv programmes such as The Simpsons, Sooty and Sweep and The Cosby Show. Her knowledge and ability to retain information on things that she loves is amazing

This bright and creative young woman responds best to positive and calm individuals who she can trust. We are looking for someone who is open minded and willing to learn about Autism, on-the-job training is provided.

**There is a wonderful support team around this person and they want to invite an additional PA(s) in to join the team**

The family live in Sheffield S10 which is on the **no 51 bus route.**

**Essential**
- Willing to learn from the young woman, her current PA team and her family
- Be friendly, reliable, and honest; and maintain confidentiality.
- Be respectful in the family.
- Be open minded and calm in your approach to support

**Desirable**
- Experience and understanding of sensory and communication difficulties.
- Supported an autistic adult either professionally or personally

**Hours**:
Various hours on a Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday.

Minimum 4 hour shift and a maximum 10 hour shift on 1 or 2 days per week. Example shifts are 9am-3pm or 1pm-7pm, however there is lots of choice and flexibility for the right PA.
