Summary
Job ref. PUR- 986-591
About me I am a 52 year old lady with Long Covid and ME/Chronic fatigue syndrome.
I use a mobility scooter and a rollator to aid with my fatigue when mobilising. I am mainly housebound and live with my two adult sons, two cats and a leopard gecko who are very well behaved :). I enjoy a good ole chat and giggle when my fatigue allows.

What you would be doing… I can suffer with low mood due to my chronic illnesses and sometimes have flare ups of my symptoms. I may be in bed for 3 days, on these days I will need lunch and hot drinks brought up to me as well as a little chat.
I am unable to tidy up and clean the house, so I will require this doing for me. I will need washing put on, dried and ironed. I may also need help with forms, appointments being made, or cancelling for me. I am looking for a PA to also drive me to medical appointments, allowing for my mobility scooter to be put in the car (it does come apart in three pieces). When my fatigue allows, I would like to attend socialising groups, go out for lunch or have a hot chocolate.
I love chatting, being outside in the fresh air, doing puzzles, painting stones and writing in my journal. I also like my garden kept tidy. I am also looking for a PA to keep me company, maybe watching a movie or chatting.
Driving licence and access to car essential
The person I would like… I am looking for a reliable and flexible PA to support me in living a more fulfilling life who is also a patient communicator, as I can struggle to find words whilst speaking, due to fatigue.
Please send a CV (with 2 references) and a covering letter explaining why you would suit this role. Thank you.
