A compassionate and proactive female Personal Assistant (aged 30–45) is required to support a 36-year-old mother living with relapsing remitting Multiple Sclerosis and epilepsy.
The role involves a mix of personal assistance, domestic support, driving, and companionship. The successful applicant will be working directly with Stacey, who is committed to living as independently and fully as possible in the community and as a parent.

- Help with domestic tasks such as tidying, cleaning, and plant care
- Support with phone calls, paperwork, diary organisation, and managing appointments
- Be willing to assist with basic physical exercises under physiotherapist guidance
- Maintain high standards of hygiene, especially important due to Stacey’s low immune system
The ideal candidate will be:
- Warm, approachable, and trustworthy
- Organised, dependable, and calm
- Confident driving a larger vehicle
- Flexible with working hours
- Comfortable around children and able to support family outings and activities
- Willing to wear a mask if unwell and refrain from attending if experiencing illness
- Open to receiving training (e.g., in epilepsy awareness or first aid, if required)
Desirable qualities:
- Previous experience in a PA or support role is preferred but not essential
- A good sense of humour and a relaxed, positive approach to work
- Shared interests such as baking, cinema, gardening, or shopping are a plus
Duties include:
- Administration

- Honest and cheerful
