We’re Dimensions, one of the UK’s largest not-for-profit organisations supporting people with learning disabilities and autism. Right now, we're looking for compassionate, upbeat individuals to join our amazing teams in New Milton.
About the Role: You’ll be supporting a vibrant and friendly lady with mild Learning Disabilities in her 40's. She's looking for someone chatty and positive to join her in everyday life. Her world includes:
- Collecting DVD's and teddy bears
- Watching Doctor Who and Disey movies
- Jig Saw Puzzles
- Exploring charity shops and Car Boot sales
We are looking for someone who can:
- Involve the person in planning community activities
- Identify common triggers such as noise, crowds, waiting times, or unexpected changes
- Notice early signs of distress (tone changes, pacing, withdrawal)
- Ask the person directly what situations feel difficult for them
- Reinforce positive decisions with calm praise
You'll be helping her lead a life that’s rich with the activities she loves and the goals she sets. If you’re kind, patient, and can bring some sunshine into her day, you’ll fit right in.
What We Offer:
- Flexible shift patterns to suit your lifestyle
- Fantastic training and development opportunities
- A truly supportive team and inspiring workplace culture
- The chance to make a real difference in someone’s life every single day
We’re all about values: We believe in helping people live the lives they choose—filled with joy, independence, and purpose. If that speaks to you, we’d love to hear your story. Come join a team that puts people first.
