He needs help with all elements of his daily life. He does like to be active (but not in an athletic way) and he loves to be entertained. But he also often also needs a lot of care as he can have seizures which lead to him needing to spend time in hospital.

Full time position 35 hours +. Indicate if you are interested in Full time or Part time when you contact us. This position could be on a freelance basis with a UTR number (if you are part time and also if you are a student) otherwise there could be a full time contract with a care agency that supports the teenager. (we can not offer a Sponsorship Visa). If interested: If you are interested please apply and already initially let us know why you would be suitable. We get so many applications please help to make it easier and explain why you applied. We will then let you know where to send your CV and a relevant cover letter explaining your interest and suitability (a few sentences might be enough to get the point across (ideally written by you and not AI).
