Weekend support workers are required to provide enabling support to a 13-year-old boy who lives in the Prudhoe area. The support is to enable the young man to have time away from his parents whilst access appropriate and engaging activities in the community.

He has a happy, lively personality and loves trains, airplanes, and other vehicles. He would like somebody who can access these interests with him. Having a persuasive nature would be beneficial as he can sometimes be a little set in his ways.

The ideal applicant will be:

Physically fit and keen to be active outdoors
Calm natured individual with chatty personality
A car driver with access to their own vehicle – essential due to location
Willing to get involved with activities and join in with the young man

The individual has no awareness of risk or danger, and the successful applicant will be required to always ensure his safety.

Hours -

To be shared between two workers (alternating weeks)-

5 hours per week during term time – to be used in a block on a weekend
10 hours per week during school holidays – flexibility on days/support times required
Annual leave entitlement 5.6 weeks pro rata per year

The successful applicant will require a full enhanced disclosure and barring service certificate to work with the children's workforce prior to commencing employment. The full cost of this will be met by the employer.
