About the Role
Care Companion (part of Healios) is a digital platform that supports neurodivergent children and young people (ages 6–18) and their families. We are building a large library of accessible, neuro-affirmative content—guides, prompts, modules, and courses—and we are looking for copywriters to help create it. You will turn clinically-reviewed material into clear, warm, age-appropriate resources, written for different audiences and ready to be built into interactive content.
Key Responsibilities
- Write content for different audiences: younger children (6–11), older children (12–15), young people (16–18), and parents/carers, adjusting tone, vocabulary, and pacing for each, in a warm and human-friendly manner.
- Apply a neuro-affirmative, strengths-based approach consistently and align writings with Care Companion’s brand and voice guidelines.
- Produce content to accessibility standards (WCAG 2.2 AA), including plain language, meaningful alt text, and clear structure.
- Storyboard resources for interactive delivery—including video and animation—to a standard that a builder or producer can use.
- Collaborate with clinical subject-matter experts to shape resources, produce first drafts for clinical review, and revise based on their feedback.
- Handle safety-sensitive topics carefully within agreed editorial guidelines. Escalate clinical questions to the clinical lead, and scope/content questions to the content manager.
- Ensure work is organised and version-controlled, while clearly flagging assumptions and unresolved questions.
