Description

2017
I am a young man living at home with my Mum in Innerleithen. I have Fragile X Syndrome and

Autism. I require someone to join my small team of Personal Assistants. They support me to live at

home as independently as possible and also support me to access various social clubs and activities.

Ensuring my safety at all times is essential. There will be some elements of personal care but this is

not my main need for support - I really need someone that can watch over me whilst allowing me to

participate in my chosen activities. I can become bored and frustrated so keeping me busy is always

a good thing.

I would like someone who is kind and caring by nature. Someone who is friendly, honest and reliable

would be great.

I really need someone who will be patient with me and allow me the time to register what you are

saying to me. I would like someone who can help me to remain calm or who can calm me down

when I do feel that things are getting a bit too much.

I am looking for someone who can help me out each week for between 10-12 hours paying an hourly

rate of £11.00 per hour and 35p per mile if using your own car to go anywhere.

Previous experience in a similar role would be advantageous but is not necessary as training can be

provided.
