About the employer

I am a friendly, outgoing, middle-aged lady looking for a female Personal Assistant/Support worker to help me live independently and access the community. I am neurodivergent and have asthma, which can sometimes flare up quite severely. I also experience migraines and have a spinal condition. Although this does not affect my mobility or ability to walk, it does limit some physical activities, including lifting and certain household tasks. I am bubbly, sociable, and enjoy chatting with people. While I love good conversation, I can take a little time to feel comfortable and build trust with someone new. Therefore, I am looking for a patient, understanding individual who will allow me the time I need to get to know them and develop a positive working relationship. I am also looking for someone who can help me maintain my independence while providing reliable, person-centred support.
