About L
L is a friendly and sociable lady who enjoys getting out and about and making the most of her week. She loves spending time in the community, whether that's going shopping, playing bingo, enjoying lunch out, going on day trips, or visiting the theatre.
L values having staff eat with her when out, so she makes a financial contribution towards staff meals. She's looking for chatty, friendly, and flexible support staff who enjoy a good laugh and positive company.
L travels independently and meets her support staff in different places depending on what she's doing that day, often around Whickham or the Metrocentre.
About the Role
You'll work as part of a dedicated team providing consistent support to L on a Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday and two weekend days in a four-week period (one Saturday and one Sunday).
Your role will focus on person-centred, community-based support, helping L plan and enjoy her days out while promoting independence, confidence, and fun.
