Are you someone who enjoys being out and about, sharing laughs, and making a real difference in someone's life? We're looking for a warm, energetic, and reliable personal assistant to support our son – a young adult with learning disabilities and complex epilepsy – as he enjoys the world around him.
He's full of life and absolutely thrives in the outdoors. Whether he's watching or playing football, playing pool, tossing darts, playing cricket, or visiting animals, he approaches everything with enthusiasm and a big smile. His joy is truly infectious, and being around him is never dull.
This is a one-to-one role, providing dedicated support at home and out in the community. You'll be there to help him navigate daily activities, stay safe, and most importantly, enjoy life to the fullest. While experience with epilepsy and emergency medical care is a bonus, it's not essential – full training will be provided. What matters most is your attitude: caring, attentive, and ready to jump into fun-filled days with an open heart.
If you're someone who values connection, wants a meaningful role, and loves the idea of spending your days making memories – we'd love to hear from you.
