As a Support Worker you’ll get to see the direct impact you are making by offering people with learning disabilities the support they need to enjoy the same rights, freedom, responsibilities, choices and quality of life as others within the wider community.

You will be providing support within our five bedded home in Tower Hamlets, a short break service to young people with Autism aged 6-18 offering residential respite, day-care and after school play sessions and outreach support in a planned way that will best meet the needs of the children and their family.
