Would you like a rewarding role where you can make a real difference to one person’s life?

I am a friendly woman living independently in Bristol with Multiple Sclerosis. I enjoy gardening, music, travel, arts and crafts and spending time in the community. I’m looking for a kind, reliable and caring Personal Assistant to become part of my small support team and help me continue living life as independently as possible.

This is much more than a caring role—it’s an opportunity to build a genuine one-to-one working relationship, supporting me both practically and socially so that I can continue enjoying the things that are important to me.

If you enjoy helping people, are patient, dependable and have a positive outlook, I would love to hear from you.

• Providing personal care when required, including assistance with washing and dressing.

• Driving me to appointments and community activities.
• Accompanying me on outings and helping me continue enjoying my hobbies and interests.
• Supporting me with physiotherapy exercises where appropriate.
• Offering companionship, encouragement and practical support to help me remain independent.

No two days are exactly the same, making this a varied and rewarding role.

About you

Ideally you will be:

• Kind, trustworthy and reliable.
• A good communicator with a friendly and positive attitude.
• Patient and respectful.
• Happy working independently in a one-to-one role.
• Someone who enjoys supporting another person to live life to the fullest.

Previous care experience is welcomed but not essential if you have the right values and a willingness to learn.
