We are recruiting for a Me Time Facilitator. Me Time is Mencap’s social inclusion, leisure, and community-based programme. It supports people with a learning disability to develop skills and confidence, expand their networks, and be fully included in their local community.
This role is a 20-hour per week, permanent contract, based in Suffolk.
As a Facilitator, you will be a valued member of the Me Time Team. In this role, you will be flexible and committed to supporting people.
Key responsibilities for a Facilitator in Me Time
* Contribute actively and positively as a colleague by providing ideas and solutions to improve individual and team performance.
* Ensure the plans we put in place for the people we support are person-centred, involving the individual in all aspects of planning and review.
* Be creative, dynamic, and adaptable to potential challenging scenarios related to the needs of the people we support.
* Complete all paperwork requirements in a timely manner, ensuring high-quality reporting and recording.
* Communicate with the people we support with dignity and respect at all times.
* Build rapport not only with the people supported but also with the wider community, including family members.
* Support individuals to make decisions and choices, and access new opportunities aligned with their desired lifestyle.
