“Love seeing small differences make big changes.” – Current Support Worker

Dimensions is proud to be recognised as a Great Place to Work for 8 years running.

We’re looking for a confident, proactive and friendly Male Support Worker to join our team in WR5, supporting one fantastic 28-year-old gentleman with a learning disability, cerebral palsy, severe anxiety and possible autism.

He communicates without words but expresses himself clearly through gestures, humour and routine. He’s an active, social and lively young man who loves being out and about — and you’ll play an essential role in helping him enjoy the structure, reassurance and fun he thrives on.

He is a sociable, energetic and outgoing person who enjoys:

• Day centres (three times a week)
• Weekly visits with his mum
• Disco nights and rock school
• Walks, parks and being outdoors
• Joking, laughing and teasing staff
• Meeting new people and being around others

He is happiest when active and engaged. He can become anxious during transitions or waiting periods, so confidence, humour and positive distraction skills are essential.

• Personal care: Minimal – mostly prompting
• Wheelchair: Yes – he pushes himself
• Hoists: Not required
• Support in eating: No
• Meal preparation: Yes
• Medication: Yes
• Behaviour support: Being mindful, confident and able to redirect anxiety positively

He has weekly family visits
, so building a warm, respectful relationship with his family is important.

This is a rewarding, relationship-focused role supporting him to live confidently, safely and joyfully. You will:

• Support daily routines and provide structure
• Use humour and conversation to redirect anxiety
• Prepare meals and support with household tasks
• Provide gentle prompting with personal care
• Support mobility (self-propelled wheelchair)
• Drive him to activities and appointments
• Join him at discos, day centres, parks and community events
• Create fun, positive and meaningful experiences
• Help manage behaviours of distress using proactive, calm approaches

This is a 20-hour role with sleep-ins included:

• 2:00pm – 2:00pm (next day) – includes sleep-in
• 3:00pm – 10:00am – includes sleep-in
• 10:00pm – 7:00am – sleep-in (£50 paid to sleep)

Rotas are planned in advance to support a healthy work–life balance.

You will be a great fit if you are:

• Confident, chatty and comfortable joking around
• Active, outdoorsy and always willing to get involved
• Calm, patient and great at redirecting anxietyib
