About Mara

30 years old
I am an experienced elderly carer. Supported living support worker, Tiphereth (2018-2019): I worked with adults with learning disabilities and autistic people offering support with after-work activities and care. This included: preparing food; personal care; medication administration; hobbies such as walking, dancing, theatre, cinema; weekly shopping; scheduling and attending appointments; going to church; individualised morning and bed time routines; attending community events. Befriender, St. Wilfrids Centre Sheffield (2017-2018): I created a safe and accommodating environment for socially excluded, vulnerable or homeless adults by encouraging them to converse and take part in the centre's daily activities. Often service users come in suffering from loneliness and anxiety, so I made it a purpose to help them feel relaxed through a friendly approach, lending a listening ear. I assisted in re-instating clients’ confidence by encouraging positive behaviour in aid of their mental health. I worked as an Information Technology Class Assistant, teaching for a variety of skill-levels, including how to access and send emails, how to search for information online, how to complete online forms, and more advance software use (Word, Excel, PowerPoint).
