I am looking for a Personal Assistant to support me with various day-to-day tasks. Due to my mobility challenges I struggle with completing household tasks such as making my bed, doing laundry, gardening and meal preparation. I also need help with walking my child to school safely. On occasion I will need support with hospital appointments.
I have a diagnosis of ADHD and learning difficulties, which means I will need some support around taking my medication, reading mail and completing paperwork. I also suffer with lack of confidence to socialise so would like some support around this which would help me to create new relationships, so I do not feel isolated. We could be going out into the community and for a coffee for example.
