Job Description

Personal Assistant/Support GCIL-MT-LD-LJ-1.26.Location G53

Could You Bring Smiles, Laughter and Fun to Thomas's Weekends? Personal Assistant needed.
 
A great Personal Assistant isn't just someone who provides support.
 
They're someone who encourages, builds confidence, shares adventures, celebrates achievements, and helps make everyday moments special.
 
Meet Thomas:
 
Thomas is a cheerful and affectionate young boy who is always happiest around kind, positive people. He loves getting out and about, spending time with those he trusts, and sharing plenty of smiles along the way.
 
Thomas is looking for a Personal Assistant who can become a friendly and familiar face in his life. Someone who enjoys building relationships, celebrates the little moments, and understands that support is about much more than helping with daily tasks.
 
Whether it's a trip to Silverburn, exploring the local community, or simply spending time together, you'll play an important role in helping Thomas enjoy new experiences, build confidence, and make happy memories.
 
A little more about Thomas:
 
Thomas has cerebral palsy and does not communicate verbally, but he has his own unique way of connecting with the people around him.
 
He's looking for someone who is patient, caring, and willing to take the time to get to know him and understand how he communicates.
 
The right person won't just be supporting Thomas. They'll be encouraging him, laughing with him, and helping him enjoy everything his weekends have to offer.

• Positive and enthusiastic
• Comfortable supporting a child with additional needs
• Happy to get out and about in the community
 
Experience supporting children or young people with disabilities would be beneficial, but your personality, warmth, and willingness to build a genuine connection with Thomas are just as important.
