**To provide support for a 17-year-old who has an Undiagnosed condition which represents as cerebral palsy, effecting all four limbs. As a result of this condition this young person uses an electric wheelchair, has communication difficulties (uses mixture of gestures, some words and communication aid, needs support in all areas of care.**
- We are currently looking to recruit an experienced Support Worker to provide support for a 17year old. All transfers are 2:1 and the parents will be the second person initially. When I go out and about, I will mostly only need one enabler for support.
I would like to get out and about in the community, so a driver is essential. My vehicle is a Volkswagen Caddy max, manual transmission. The places I would like to visit are Beamish, Metrocentre and I like Arcades so Whitley Bay would be a good place to go now and then. I enjoy visiting National Trust sites and eating out.
- I can understand clear communication and once you get to know me you will be able to understand what I want/need. I also use a communication aid.
- I need support in the mornings, this would be at 7:15am - 8:30am x3 mornings. Monday, Wednesday and Friday at moment but may change in September depending on college. My taxi comes at about 8:17am but just in case of any delays I think it’s best to leave at 8:30am

**College Holidays - 26 hours per week**
