I am a Gentleman of 80 years who is looking for a Personal Assistant to provide me support with socialisation and companionship. The working hours are flexible and will be mutually agreed in advance.
As a wheelchair user I require a PA who can assist me with mobility and getting around.
Having a PA who has access to their own vehicle it essential as I will require assistance to attend the Stroke Lunch Club and other activities away from home. Occasionally my wife may accompany me on these outings, so I would like a PA who can accommodate this also.
I will also require support when going shopping or attending appointments.
I appreciate a good conversation and enjoy watching a variety of sporting events and quiz shows. Ideally, I would like my PA to share similar interests.
Occasionally some light domestic duties may be required. Mostly heating pre-prepared meals or preparing sandwiches, snacks, and refreshments.
