    We are supporting a client to recruit a Support Worker for up to 8 hours per week to assist a 16 year old young lady in Folkestone, Kent, to access fun social activities at the weekend and during school holidays. We would also appreciate someone who could do occasional weekday hours to help her access school transport. This could be up to 2 hours mid-morning but is not the main requirement. She is a wheelchair user, but does have some mobility. She can exhibit some challenging behaviour when she does not want to do something (mainly sitting down and refusing to move), so it is important to follow the clear and calm strategies which are in place and work well. Mum has a hearing impairment so you will need to have clear communication skills. The young lady likes going to the park and also to zoos and wildlife parks, so a clean driving licence and use of your own car is essential. Rate of pay is £13 per hour. 4 weeks paid holiday (pro rata) plus bank holidays is applicable, as is access to a workplace pension. The post is subject to an enhanced DBS check (provided) and will start as soon as a clear check is received. This can be provided if you do not already have one.
