Music is a big part of his life. He enjoys a wide range of musical genres and regularly attends concerts and events. The right person will share his enthusiasm for getting out and about and will accompany him to live music events and other activities he enjoys.

He also values spending time with friends and enjoys walking into town to visit cafés and restaurants. Your support will help him stay connected with the people and places that are important to him.

Alongside social activities, you will also provide practical support with organising paperwork, managing correspondence, and helping arrange appointments and transport. At times, you may accompany him to meetings, clubs, and other engagements.

This role is about building a positive and respectful working relationship, supporting the individual to remain independent, confident, and active in his community.

The hours are flexible and will be agreed in advance to support planned activities and events.

A full driving licence and access to a vehicle are essential, as you may occasionally be asked to drive to activities or appointments.
