Job Opportunity: Personal Assistant (PA) for Leisure and Community Activities

I’m looking to employ a reliable, enthusiastic, and compassionate Personal Assistant (PA) to support a young adult with complex needs to access leisure activities in the community. This is a second PA
role, working alongside another carer already in post.

About the role:
Supporting the individual to go swimming with another PA — you must be comfortable in the water and able to provide support in the pool. Swimming sessions are most likely to take place on weekdays.

Attending music events (including live music in pubs), farm shows, visits to farms, and other community outings — these are more likely to take place on weekends or in the evenings.
Supporting attendance at S.E.N. discos in Harrogate.
Working as part of a small, friendly team to enable the individual to enjoy their interests and participate safely and fully in their chosen activities.

Essential qualities:

Kind, patient, and calm under pressure.

Physically fit and able to provide support in the water.
Willing to learn about the individual’s communication style and sensory needs.
Comfortable working alongside another PA or carer.

Desirable (but not essential):
Experience supporting someone with learning disabilities, autism, or complex health needs.

Pay and hours:

£15.69 per hour, paid employment.

Minimum of 6 hours per week, with potential for up to 12 hours per week.
Possibility of additional hours during holiday periods.
