He lives at home with his lovely family and supported by his small and very dedicated team of Support Workers. Harry has lived in Holloway all his life; everyone in his local community knows and loves him. Harry loves dance; he attends a music studio where he practices free dancing , he joins his weekly Boccia group once a week, he also enjoys swimming going to the gym and he especially loves going to Church. Probably top of the list is his allotment, a stone s throw from his house. This is a wonderful space where Harry is planning a new sensory garden. A driver is required for trips further afield, however Harry s preferred mode of transport is his 3-wheeler trike; he goes everywhere on it, so his Support Worker needs to be physically fit to keep up. Harry has cerebral palsy, learning disabilities and experiences high levels of anxiety. Due to his anxiety meeting new people or initiating new activities can feel very overwhelming for him. He will require assistance with activities of daily life, including support with personal care, meal preparation, shopping, budgeting and accessing the community.

You will gently support Harry to participate in his chosen activities, helping him to express his wishes in an appropriate way. Harry walks unaided but can lose his balance so his support worker must always be vigilant and physically able. Before reaching this point with Harry, new team members are introduced slowly. Initially Harry may want to meet first, perhaps at his allotment, or the dance studio, until he feels a sense of trust and security. Harry is a very gentle person; it is so important that he feels he has his own autonomy. The start times may differ slightly depending on Harry s levels of anxiety, 09.00/10.00 am to 9.00 pm. There will be more in-depth information provided to shortlisted candidates regarding the introduction of new team members and how Harry s anxiety impacts his daily life. Being a lover of gardening or simply keen to know more about it would make Harry so happy. He loves his allotment and how lucky it is to have access to this type of urban gardening. This Job Would Suit This role is going to suit a highly motivated, energetic and patient male Support Worker. You will be working closely with Harry s family to build a supportive and therapeutic relationship. Someone who is a real team player, (able to plan, organise and contribute ideas and can follow instructions and care plans), an excellent communicator, who genuinely wants to mentor and champion Harry to excel in his day-to-day life. When asked what his ideal support worker is, Harry says I want someone to be kind to me and someone who is patient with me . Why You ll Love This Role Full induction and training will be provided and this role would be particularly suitable for someone who may be looking for a career in social care. There will be a 16 week induction. This is an incredibly caring family with Harry very much at the heart of it and his community.
