He has a cheeky sense of humour and enjoys a good laugh. He is non verbal and clearly communicates his likes and dislikes in his own way. He has autism and well controlled epilepsy. He enjoys walks and taking part in activities in the local community.

• Good spoken and written English.
• Previous experience in home care or a similar caring role.
• The ability to follow care plans while adapting to changing needs.
• A driving licence is helpful but not essential.

What we offer

• A competitive hourly rate (Hourly rate is due an increase in April, just don't know what it is yet but we are guessing at least £13.30 per hour).
• A structured three week rolling rota including 1 full weekend on then 2 weekends off.
• Six hour shifts with a mix of 8am to 2pm and 2pm to 8pm.
• Opportunities for extra hours to cover holidays and absences.
