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.
