Summary

Please note this is not a Swansea city council job. You will be working with a private client who received direct payments.

A little about myself:
I am a fun, kind, and creative young woman. I have Autism, ADHD, PTSD, and suffer from occasional seizures which are non-epileptic. I also suffer from anxiety and get easily overwhelmed, so I would like a PA who is calm and understanding and I could trust to be patient and gentle with me.
I would like my PA to help me with admin tasks, like filling in forms and making phone calls. I also need help to organise my time and organise my things. I would like help with food shopping and buying big or heavy things, as I don't have my own transport. I would also like to do fun things, like going to the pictures, hiking, doing crafts, and playing games.
I would like a PA to help me find out about different groups and activities and help me start attending some of them so that I can make some friends. I need help in social situations as they can often make me feel anxious and overwhelmed.
