- Be Attentive: Use distraction techniques to manage behaviours of concern and ensure both gents enjoy a calm and supportive environment.

- Be Active: Join them in their hobbies and interests, whether it's walking, attending workshops, or simply enjoying the outdoors.

What Makes You a Great Fit?

We're looking for someone who is:

- Empathetic & Open: You're patient, honest, and always ready to listen.

- Active & Involved: You enjoy participating in activities and encouraging others to engage in their interests.

- Dependable: You're reliable and someone the individuals you support can trust and depend on., BSL Support: British Sign Language (BSL) translated videos are available for all of our recruitment communications.
