They are both bright and cheerful and very much enjoy the company of others, socialising in restaurants and cafes, participating in arts and crafts, watching films, football, music events, visiting the theatre and outside activities. They need evening support as well as care interventions and monitoring overnight
  • You will be able to use your own initiative and work comfortably and sensitively within a friendly, lively, home.
  • You will be joining a team of friendly and positive people delivering a high standard of care and support 24/7, and be supported very well in all aspects of your work.
  • Experience in working with young people with additional needs is preferred but personality, common sense and an ability to work flexibly and with initiative are just as important.
  • You will especially need the ability to support the young people have time and space to express their own thoughts, wishes and character.
