Enhance Social Care supports young adults with autism and associated learning differences between ages 17-30 in the community and in specialist supported living services.

We’re looking for enthusiastic, caring and active people to support and mentor young adults to increase their quality of life and have greater independence. Ask yourself the following:

- _**Can you coach and support others?**_
- _**Would you make a good mentor for young people struggling with their identity and self worth?**_
- _**Do you have experience as a youth or support worker?**_
- _**Have you a background in autism or a someone keen to get involved in the autistic community?**_
- _**Are you physically active and enjoy the idea of participating in physically demanding activities such as going to the gym, long hikes and more?**_

You will be supporting individuals in all walks of life; inside the house, in the community and out on activities. Many of the people we support are at risk of becoming socially isolated and losing their independence and community presence.

Often the people we support will be very active, doing a range of different activities that can include things like going to the gym, long hikes, swimming and more. We are looking for people who would relish the opportunity to support people on activities such as these and understand the importance of collaborating with the people they support.
