Personal Assistant (20.5 Hours per Week) My name is Lindsay, and I am a full-time wheelchair user with an outgoing personality. I am looking for a friendly, reliable, and enthusiastic Personal Assistant to support me in leading an active and independent lifestyle. I enjoy reading, going to the cinema, and eating out. Staying active is very important to me, so a key part of the role will involve accompanying me to the gym and swimming sessions, which help to support my mobility and overall wellbeing. The role will also include: • Accompanying me to appointments. • Assisting with shopping trips. • Supporting with light domestic duties. • Providing support to help me enjoy social and leisure activities. You will be required to drive my adapted car, so applicants must: • Hold a full, clean UK driving licence. • Be aged 25 or over (due to vehicle insurance requirements). I'm looking for someone with a positive attitude, a good sense of humour, and excellent communication skills who enjoys supporting others to live independently. If you're reliable, outgoing, and happy to get involved in a variety of activities, I'd love to hear from you.
