Support for an independent 40-year-old man with MS and his young family - Bradford - BD3.
I'm a 40-year-old Muslim Asian male with multiple sclerosis. As a result, the physical aspects of life are really difficult for me.
I live with my wife and 5 children aged 4-14. I'm a company director and trader; I have a busy life and like to keep active. However, since my disability has progressed, this has become much more difficult.
I am looking for someone who can assist me in the day-to-day physical aspects of my life. I also have small children and want assistance in caring for them. This might be as simple as making a cup of tea to building some flat-pack furniture from Ikea. As I am physically limited, support would also involve day-to-day activities at home as well as support to go out of the house. There’s always lots to keep the house running, so I'm looking for someone that will get stuck into any task. I like to think of a PA as an extension of me, allowing me to continue life without disability being a limiting factor.
I enjoy going to the gym 3-4 times a week and socializing.
I am looking for someone who is flexible, easy-going, and likes a bit of banter. Punctuality is extremely important too. This position would suit someone who is happy and easy-going, with an empathetic nature and a very positive and optimistic attitude to life. Due to the nature of the role, versatility and commitment are key. I'm looking for someone local, preferably, as support is needed often at short notice for me to do things during periods where I have energy to do them, even if it’s just me delegating. Punctuality, being on time to work, is extremely important, and being late to work isn't something I can put up with.
Days and hours are flexible. Work will be mostly afternoons and evenings; however, I have some important occasional appointments in the mornings.
I am looking for someone to cover 4 days at 5 hours a day; however, this may increase.
