We are committed to Equal opportunities. We are currently recruiting for Bank Support Workers to support an individual with Autism, learning disability, ADHD and Prader Willi syndrome in Telford on a 2:1 basis.
Please note we are not a recruitment agency.

About the individual
Hi! I am 24 and I have diagnoses of Prader Willi Syndrome, Autism, ADHD and learning difficulties. My behaviour has been described as challenging, although I think that sometimes people just see my difficulties and don’t work to understand me as a whole person. I can get anxious and frustrated when I find things difficult, but most importantly I am smiley, excitable, enthusiastic and loving. I have a great sense of humour and I enjoy making people laugh.
I am extremely sociable; my family say that I have always made friends wherever I go, and manage to make everyone smile with my happy-go-lucky personality. I love the over-the-top glitz and glamour of show business: I enjoy talking about and going to see musicals, and my absolute favourite TV programme is Strictly Come Dancing (each year my dad takes me to the show’s live tour – this is the best night of my year!).
I am happiest when singing or dancing, or when talking about my football team Manchester City. My family are really important to me, and I enjoy visits from my parents and sister, as well as extended family. My family have a dog who I love to talk about and cuddle with when he visits, and I also volunteer at a dog shelter where I enjoy walking the rescue dogs regularly with my staff. Day to day, I need to be kept busy, I like doing my dog walking, and I also enjoy youth clubs, discos, swimming, horse riding, going to the pub and bowling. I would like to look at more activities available for me and I need support workers who are enthusiastic to support me with these.
My condition means that food is very important to me and my care, I need support workers that can keep boundaries with me around food to keep me safe. I do love cooking and every Sunday I cook a roast dinner for myself and staff – I like treating my staff and making them happy. I am very chatty and bubbly, and so my staff need to be able to give me the same energy back, and I love hugs.
To be part of their team, they are looking for the following qualities from a team member:
  • Trustworthy – it is really important to me that I can build strong relationships with those around me and that I am able to feel happy and cared for. My staff team is a second family to me.
  • Kind
  • Outgoing, bubbly and smiley
  • Someone who cares for me and wants me to be happy; respects me for who I am and everything about me
  • Structure and reliability – I need structure to allow me to feel safe and supported
  • A good listener who is understanding and empathetic – I need someone to listen to my worries and views
  • Funny, good sense of humour – I love ‘banter’
  • Proactive and creative – I would love for someone to help me find new activities to fill my time
  • Eager to learn, open-mindedness and a problem-solver – working with me might bring new challenges or require creative solutions
  • Encouraging and enthusiastic – sometimes when I am not feeling great, I will need staff to encourage me to do activities
  • Good communication skills – it is important that you are able to effectively communicate with me and also my family as although they live a few hours away from me, they are very involved in my care and know me better than anyone!
  • Someone who is willing to join in with my interests
