About the employer

I am a middle-aged lady who is looking for female helpers who have a good sense of humour and a lively personality.
I would like a friendly and chatty person because I love to have a good chat along with meeting new people.
I am severely sight impaired with arthritis in my knees but do not need to use a wheelchair, but I do, however, need someone that is willing to walk at the same pace as I do to support me if I require it.

Looking for someone to support me with social activites along with general day to day tasks and may need some evening support. This can include days out and travelling further a field to broaden my horizons.
It is also extremely important that when we are out especially in the supermarket or hospital that you stay next to me and not leave me alone. You will also be required to help carry my bags please.
I will require your assistance to read labels and anything else that is appropriate for what we are doing.
It is also very important that when we go out in your car that you always park the passenger side on the curb side so I can safely get out.
Due to having asthma I am looking for a person who is a nonsmoker and if you vape, I require you not to do this around me because of my breathing.
I attend college one day a week and enjoy shopping and getting out into the community.
Currently being assessed for a guide dog so you will need to be comfortable round dogs and respectful towards the dog and the role they play in my life.
You will need to be happy to put a dog in your car and the car will need to be big enough to fit a labrador size dog.
