A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF
I am a lady in my 40’s living in the Rhondda with my children. I require someone to accompany me as a support and ensure I am safe as I go about daily activities. I am outgoing and friendly and enjoy learning, going for walks in the local and wider area, shopping and going for a coffee in the local town and the occasional day out away from my local area. I would prefer a PA that is outgoing while also being reliable, punctual and quite flexible with times and who is also willing to engage in a programme of rehabilitation and who will encourage me to rebuild my confidence both in my home and out in the community whilst also making sure I am always safe.
PLACE OF WORK
Both in my home and in the community as required.
HOURS OF WORK
5 hours to be worked every other Saturday or Sunday.
In addition I’d like someone who is willing to cover an odd overnight shift when my other PA isn’t available.

40p mileage allowance
