Hiring! ⭐ We're looking for Autism Support Workers to join our fantastic team in Worksop.
This is a role where two days will never be the same, where you'll be supporting autistic people to develop independent living skills, manage anxieties and live life to the fullest.
🫧 Like Lee, who's been learning to do laundry and volunteers to wash everyone's clothes!
💃 Or Mariah, who loves respite because it gives her space to practice her dancing!
We love our work; and we want people who will love it too. Who want a world that values and supports autistic people. Could that be you?
