Supported employment service - success stories (John) Supported employment services in Scarborough - a success story

There are many success stories of people who have found work with the help of supported employment services. One of the success stories from the Scarborough area is John, who works at Plaxton Court.

John works at Plaxton Court as part of the general maintenance team. His role is to assist the estate manager with domestic duties such as: gardening; weeding; keeping the entrance and car park tidy and presentable; light resident chores; and maintaining the communal and industrial areas.

John worked closely with a supported employment services job coach at first to help him to establish a routine, as he had been out of work for a long time. With a planned programme of support in place, John was able to increase his confidence at work and over time support was reduced as John became more independent in the workplace.

The service then worked closely with the team at Plaxton Court to develop natural supports.

John is now an established member of the team and says; "I love it here, and the staff are great."
