We are looking to recruit Support Workers in the Newcastle upon Tyne areas of Tyneside. We are looking for people living in or close to the North Tyneside area. Do you believe that everyone should be themselves no matter what? That everyone should have the same opportunities in life and that a disability should not be a barrier? Your job as a support worker is to help make that happen for someone you support? You don’t need experience just passion Becoming a Support Worker is just the start, this organisation actively promotes from within and encourages people to progress. You will be joining a unique provider, who promote independence for adults with learning disabilities, living in their own flat or supported living scheme. Why become a Support Worker? Emma is an example of one of adults that you may support: My name is Emma, and I live in a shared house with 3 of my good friends. We all get along and I love the times we share (although sometimes we do disagree) I have autism and I really do struggle if my routine isn’t kept simple and structured and when I am on my own, I can get agitated and upset, this can lead me to make a loud humming noise. I have a Support Worker called Lisa and she is a massive help to me. Without her I would always be late for college, I wouldn’t be able to have a nice warm breakfast, and I would forget to take my medication. I also wouldn’t be able to get out in the community swimming twice a week which is what I love. One day I would like to possibly get to the Olympics, that’s my dream. Lisa is there for me when I’m sad or worried, she talks to me and explains things in a clearer way, so I can process what’s happening. Without her I wouldn’t be able to have independence in my own home, which is what life is all about isn’t it? What are the hours, salary and benefits? Full and part time hours are available. Full Time Shifts could include days, evenings, weekends and sleepovers. Part Time Shifts days evenings and weekends only. £7.70 per hour for under 25 years old. Sleepovers £62.64 per night. £8.21 per hour for over 25 years old. Sleepovers £62.64 per night. So, could you make a difference?
