Personal Assistant (PA) Required – Folkestone I am looking for a Personal Assistant (PA) to support my 11-year-old autistic son, Sebastian, based in Folkestone. Main priority: Support at Scouts on Thursday evenings (7:00–8:30pm), plus travel time either side (Holy Trinity Church). This will account for around 1.5–2 hours of the weekly hours. A DBS check for Scouts and one for Direct Payments will be required. Hours: • 4 hours per week (term time) • 8 hours per week (school holidays) Paid via Direct Payments (including holiday pay). Any accrued or flexible hours are usually used for community-based activities such as trips to the zoo, woods walks, and other outings that support independence and social skills. Some of these hours are also used for holiday clubs, including those accessed through the Free School Meals scheme or other suitable holiday provision. About Sebastian: Seb is a cheeky, loving, and curious child who enjoys Lego, numbers, building, and being active. He requires constant supervision, has no danger awareness, and is a flight risk. He may experience moments of dysregulation and benefits from gentle encouragement to join in activities, particularly in group settings such as Scouts. About you: • Calm, reliable, and patient • Experience with SEN preferred but not essential • Safety-aware and able to provide consistent supervision • Driving licence preferred but not essential
