Personal Assistant for lady in West Runton - 6 hours per week @ £12.38 p/h - Cromer - NR27

Job Purpose:

I am a friendly lady with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis and Parkinson’s who is seeking a female personal assistant to assist me with everyday living tasks such as personal care, light housework, meal prep, paperwork, and to collect my prescription from the pharmacy.
