This is a great opportunity to work as part of a small team providing specialist support to a young man with autism, who requires, reassurance, predictability, and consistency from those supporting him. More details below:

I am a 25-year-old young man who loves to get out and explore the outdoors, in particular walking at the beach and exploring big open spaces. I have specific words and phrases I use to communicate which I need whoever is supporting me to know well.

When I feel anxious or stressed, I can struggle with communication, I need whoever is supporting me to remain patient and calm to allow me to get my words out or give me space if needed.

I enjoy listening to music particularly Kings of Leon and Justin Bieber. I am also a big fan of Disney movies and like to relax and watch them on my iPad.

I work as part of a social enterprise once a week which involves making compost and preparing firewood to sell to the local community. I need some encouragement to get there but once I am there, I really enjoy it.

I have a set routine that involves work, supporting the community, maintaining my home and leisure activities. It’s important that I am involved in planning this at the start of the week, and we stick to this for my overall wellbeing and to ensure I don’t become anxious.

I am very close to my mum and sister and love to spend time with them. I stay with my mum once a month and spend some time there during holidays throughout the year.

I am looking for people to support me with the following qualities and experience:

• Have experience of supporting people with Autism
• Have experience in challenging behaviour/Behavioural Support
• Be able to be innovative with a can do attitude
• Enjoy the outdoors, having fun and be self-motivated
• Be on my side and understanding, even when things are difficult.
• Confident and able to think on your feet
• Flexible and able to respond to change
• Someone who is resilient and believes in me.
• Able to build a positive relationship with me and my family.
• Have the ability to work on your own initiative and consistently as part of a team.
• Have excellent communication skills with IT skills
• Patient and able to show empathy
• Passionate and dedicated

We are looking for inspiring, enthusiastic, and experienced support worker to join our team at Tiphereth providing focused personalised person-centred support. You will ideally have a good understanding of the support needs of Autistic people.

Your Role will be to:

• Develop a relationship with the young man.

Do you have what it takes to make a difference in someone’s life?

Maybe you are already working in social care and want to join an organisation with real relationships and community at its heart.

This is a great opportunity to work as part of a small team providing specialist support to a young man with autism, who requires, reassurance, predictability, and consistency from those supporting him. More details below:

We are looking for a full-time support worker on a permanent basis to work with a very active young man, providing 1:1 support within a shared supported living setting.

I am a 34-year-old man with autism. I live in a flat with 3 other young men and I am an active part of my community. I attend two different day services on site four days a week. The Printmaking studio and the Peregrine’s of which I am a founding member and which I have attended for 10 years. I particularly enjoy being outdoors and litter picking. I enjoy languages and am good at puzzles like crosswords and also enjoy watching quiz shows and cartoons. I am healthy and enjoy physical exercise, particularly walking. I have a large family who I am close to, and I sometimes get the train home independently to see them.

I have very good verbal skills, however I can struggle to articulate myself and find this frustrating. I require clear communication, avoiding long sentences, open questions or abstract language. At times I get overwhelmed with situations and find it challenging to communicate my needs, at these times I need a gentle approach in order to move forward and be able to finish my set task.

I am looking for someone to provide support with activities like going to the gym, going for long hikes and generally further developing my core life-skills. I really benefit from 1:1 support and focussed attention although I also need personal space at times. I am looking to build on my ability to do things independently and to develop my sense of self and agency. I need someone to support me to plan and organise skill building sessions in order for me to become more independent which is my greatest wish. For example I would like to be able to travel on the bus and go to the shop by myself.

The ideal candidate for this role would:

• Have experience working with people with autism
• Have experience in managing stressed and distressed behaviour
• Be reasonably physically fit and able to provide support with physical exercise
• Be patient and empathic
• Be a clear communicator and able to work as part of a small team.
• Have an understanding of community and shared supported living services
• Have a flexible and adaptable personality
• Be able to embrace working in a vibrant community setting.
