Are you passionate about wanting to make a difference in the lives of disabled children and young people? Why not join our team?

Every day you have the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of the disabled children and young people you work with. 

It is demanding work but at the end of the day you know you have made a difference.  Colleagues have said that one of the best bits about working at YPAT is "spending time with the children, supporting them to develop and knowing you have had a positive impact on their quality of life."

The Role

You will assist in the organising and delivery of the YPAT sessions.  You will provide person-centred support to ensure young people are able to access a range of activities while achieving outcomes to improve their quality of life. We operate 7 days a week, excluding public holidays. In exchange for your commitment and skills we offer a supportive working environment, regular supervision and an opportunity to participate in further training.

You must have experience of working with children, either on a paid or voluntary basis, together with a working knowledge of person-centred planning and delivery. 

An enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check will be required for this job.  A conviction may not exclude candidates from appointment but will be considered as part of the recruitment process.
