Written by our client:

I am easy going and easy to get along. My hobbies include music, TV and Video games. I am interested in a wide variety of music and like to write my own music. I also play guitar.

I like to go to clubs and concerts with friends to listen to music. I do also like to be spontaneous so when I decide to do these things it could be quite last minute.

My condition means that I have to use a wheelchair as I cant walk to get myself around and I need help getting in and out of it using a hoist. However, once I am in my wheelchair, I am able to get around independently.

- A full clean UK driving licence (Desirable but not essential)

Duties will include:

- Personal care and social support;

The exact duties will be agreed upon with the successful candidate by our client to ensure they make the best use of the PAs skills and talents.

Application Process: To apply, please submit a cover letter describing your interests and explaining why you would be a suitable candidate for this unique and rewarding position.

Training and Development: Full training in the client's particular needs will be provided, making this an ideal opportunity for individuals without previous care experience. You will also have on-call support from our client coordinator team.
