Who We Are

Hi – I’m Michael, Frankie’s Dad, and I am looking for a kind, reliable and fun-loving Personal Assistant to support my amazing son, Frankie. This is a 1:1 support role, where you’ll accompany Frankie on social outings, helping him stay safe while making sure he’s having the best possible time.

Meet Frankie

Frankie is a vibrant, funny, and adventurous young man. His zest for life is contagious, and he brings so much joy to everyone around him. He loves the great outdoors – bike rides, trips to the park, or swimming are right up his street – and he’s always up for exploring new things. Right now, he’s especially interested in birds, though his passions often change, which means no two outings are ever the same.

An enhanced DBS will be required for this role, and any offer of employment will be conditional upon satisfactory references and DBS.
