Hello, I’m Kate, a 33-year-old powerchair user, seeking a passionate, proactive female personal assistant. The role involves assisting with personal care, including showers, toileting, and transfers (using a hoist—full training provided), as well as helping with shopping trips, dog walks, and household tasks.
