I enjoy support work but I've not really done that aspect of it yet. So far my 5 shifts in my bank role have been with non verbal younger people. Its been 2:1 support but I've had periods were i've been left alone. I've done activities like takin them to the park, listening to nursery rhymes etc.

I'll be ready though for when the time arises & I'm aware it requires a lot of patience & persistence. Btw if I'm going to be workin all day every day, isn't that counter productive to me being more sociable? .
