Job description

Support Worker / Personal Assistant (PA)-PUR-129-597

I am a 49-year-old lady living in Balby. I have multiple sclerosis and scoliosis and use

an electric wheelchair to help me remain independent and get out and about. I am

usually able to drive and enjoy maintaining as much independence as possible.

Although I am a wheelchair user, on good days I like to walk around my home using

a rollator. Due to my conditions, I have both good days and bad days, which means

the amount of support I need can vary from day to day.

I share custody of my dog, Luna, with my ex-partner. Luna is 5 years old and can be

quite shy when she first meets people, but once she gets to know you, she will

happily ask for lots of belly rubs and snacks.

I am looking for a caring and reliable Personal Assistant to support me with daily

living tasks and help me continue living as independently as possible.

Hours and rate of pay

Approximately 30 hours per month, with additional hours available if desired.

Rate of Pay: £12.71 per hour

Hours: shifts will range form 1.5 to 5 hours per day.

Location

Balby

Support will take place in my wheelchair-accessible bungalow and within the local

community.

DBS/Checks

Confirmation of DBS check

Right to Work and references will be needed.
