Who we are: The Grace Eyre Foundation is a charity based in Brighton & Hove and the wider Sussex community that has been working with people with a Learning Disability and autistic people since 1898. Our mission is to work towards being led by people with Learning Disabilities and autistic people to deliver high-quality housing, support and activities in their local communities. The people we support tell us that they want “good support from kind and friendly people” – so that is what we are looking for!
Introduction to the role: We are looking for someone who is organised, understanding and kind. Who are quick on their feet and able to keep up with demand. Someone who enjoys rides at Theme Parks and who’s willing to go to the Day Service and get involved with activities there, such as music, jobs on the farm etc. Also, some Outreach services such as emotional support and supporting a group of individuals within their own home.
Brief outline of the role: The rota is planned for supporting for 1 supported living service where 4 people share one house – this is helping the people we support live as independently as possible with active support to make this manageable. Another part of the rota is supporting to go to Theme Parks and trampolining clubs. However, this part of the role needs good attention to detail and following routines to ensure smooth and good outcome in support sessions. Emotional support and supporting at Day Service will also require following routines and being engaged into day centre activities with the person you are supporting.
