Position: Personal Assistant

A Little About Myself

I am an easy-going and friendly 53 year old living in the Pentre area with my two dogs. I can be reserved at first but after that I am a very outgoing person. I enjoy watching a variety of films and like to read, so I can be quiet for periods when engrossed in a book. Due to my disabilities I can vary from day to day and my mobility can be a lot worse some days due to my muscle pain. I use a frame around the house and a scooter when out in the community, and I also have a wheelchair on order for use in and outdoors.

Purpose of the Job

I am looking for a Male PA to support me to access the community and to take part in social activities. The role will also consist of supporting me with day-to-day tasks around the home. I hope that having a PA will improve my lifestyle and confidence as I am unable to do these activities without help.

Hours of Work

I have 14.75 hours per week available. The majority of the hours are flexible, but I would like some hours to be used every Saturday morning for Mass.

Rates of Pay

£12.80 per hour plus 40p per mile where applicable.

• Looking for other social activities I can take part in

Type of Person Required

• Someone who is trustworthy
• A person who respects the privacy and confidentiality of working in someone else’s home
• Someone happy to work with two small dogs in the home
• A reliable and punctual person
• An easy-going and flexible person
• Male PA required due to an element of Personal Care
• A driver with business class insurance if using own vehicle
