Our extremely bright, friendly, and somewhat cheeky 6-year-old client is looking for a Support Worker to join his team. F is non-verbal and has complex needs but this doesn’t stop him from enjoying arts & crafts and music and he loves spending time with his younger sibling and family.

  • Full training in all aspects of our client’s care will be given and you will be fully supported by his Case Manager.
