Overview
I am looking for a flexible Support Worker to support me to access the community and maintain my independence, both at home, and out and about. I live in my own flat with 24-hours support and like to think of myself as someone with a wide range of interests and good sense of humour.
I am a Christian and belong to a lively and welcoming fellowship, although I have a healthy respect in all faiths and beliefs. In my social time, I love to visit cafes, where I can watch the world go by whilst chatting over a latte. I love sport and am an avid viewer of all different sports. Additionally, I love listening to music and have a wide range of musical tastes.
I am looking for someone who is friendly, respectful and supportive. You will be working with me so I can continue to access activities I enjoy in the community and also maintain my independent living.
