Young man with Autism seeking PA for up to 20 hours per month (remote working) £13.40p/h Apply at UKCIL.com. Reference: 88cb128d I am a young man with Autism and Anxiety who has developed negative feelings about leaving the house. I have not left my house in over a year, which has caused me to disengage from the outside world and become socially isolated. I am seeking a PA who can encourage me to re-engage and support me to interact with other people and the outside world. Due to my anxiety I struggle to interact with new people and do not like doing so in-person. As such, this role will start on a remote working basis where sessions will take place online, via Teams. It is hoped that with the right support this can, in time, develop into an in-person role. I am a bright young man with a great sense of humour and personality. I love playing video games such as Call of Duty and Fortnite. I have good general knowledge and enjoy discussions about topics such as gaming, biology and Greek Mythology. Someone who has knowledge on these topics and is able to engage in discussions about them would be ideal. This will be a phased start where to begin with, my parents will accompany me until which time I feel comfortable. Location: Remote (to begin with).
