About the Role

You’ll be joining a supported living home in New Southgate, just a short walk from New Southgate Station and close to Alexandra Palace. You’ll support four adults, three women and one man, with autism and learning disabilities. Three people have epilepsy and full training (including buckle training) will be provided to ensure you feel confident and prepared.

Each person has their own interests. Some love going to the gym, one attends college, and another spends weekdays at a day centre. Weekends are all about hobbies and having fun, whether that’s music, crafts, or relaxing together. Your day and week will be varied and rewarding, you will support with personal care (prompting personal hygiene routines), prepare meals, follow SALT guidelines for one person with dysphagia, and ensure everyone feels safe and supported throughout the day.
