Job description

I am in my forties and have some complex health needs and mental health issues. I share my flat with my beloved cat, so a cat lover is essential.

I have a wide range of interests including crocheting, cinema, fossil hunting, swimming and yoga. I am looking for someone who will be able to work with me to motivate and support me with setting up systems to manage my paperwork and bills, meal planning and food preparation, prompts to shower, to wash clothes, and getting out and about.

I would really like to start up swimming again, so a PA, who would be prepared to support me with this and enjoys the water as much as I do would be great.

I can be a bit 'cheeky' at times, so I need someone who understands my needs and is kind and patient, especially when it comes to tasks I tend to put off.
