Job description

Personal Assistant - Care - Cookridge area - Leeds - LS16

I am a sociable, disabled female in my 30s with cerebral palsy who is looking for an enthusiastic and active female Personal Assistant who can relate to my needs and interests.

I need support to access the various activities in which I participate, e.g., powerchair football, journalism, blogging, and theatre, as well as assistance with my personal care and health therapy needs, and help maintaining my accommodation.

I am looking for one or two female PA(s) to support me from Thursday to Saturday, including overnight sleeping nights at my accommodation after a period of training and familiarisation.

Pay rate: £14.20 per hour (days and evenings), plus, when applicable, £91.52 per night sleeping night allowance.

Because I like to get out and see friends and family, it is important that you have a clean manual driving licence, are confident to drive my wheelchair-adapted vehicle, and preferably also have your own car.

Please tell me a bit about yourself, what you are doing now, your recent employment history, what you have enjoyed, and why you are applying for this role. Include your availability for work (minimum 24 hours) during the period from Thursday to Saturday each week.

I look forward to hearing from you.
