Job Opportunity

We are looking for a kind, reliable and enthusiastic PA to support a 21-year-old young woman in living an active life. The role involves travelling with her to a variety of weekly activities such as Mencap, Nickel Support and horse riding, as well as other fun outings including trampolining, bowling and crazy golf. She loves being outdoors, so the PA will also accompany her on walks and days out to places like Nonsuch Park, Richmond Park, Oak Park and local farms. A key part of the role will be helping her develop her communication, reading and writing skills, supporting her in a patient and encouraging way. The PA will also provide gentle assistance with personal care, including showering twice a week, while encouraging her growing independence in this area. Support will also be needed with simple meal preparation such as breakfast and lunch, though the role does not involve cooking. We are looking for someone who has experience in supporting young adults with Down Syndrome and autism, or significant experience in working with young people with learning difficulties. The ideal candidate will be warm, understanding, and committed to helping her build confidence and independence in daily life. As travel is an essential part of the role, the PA will need to have their own car and be able to drive to and from activities.
