About Myself
I am a 67-year-old woman living in Pontypridd with my family. I have a learning disability that affects my daily life, and I require support with various activities, including mobility which is decreasing.
My interests include socialising, shopping, meals out, ten-pin bowling, music, and chatting. I love car rides to Porthcawl and Ogmore.
My family and friends are very important to me. I am outgoing and bubbly, enjoying banter with others. It is important for me to follow my routines; if they are broken, I can become very upset and verbal.
Purpose of the Job
As my Personal Assistant, you will work closely with me and my family. Your role is to support me outside my home, providing respite for my family and enabling me to access activities independently.
Hours of Work
45.5 hours per week, flexible (Monday-Friday 4 pm-8 pm, weekends either day or evening). These hours will be shared among several PAs, so even if you can pick up one shift a week for a few hours, you will be considered. Evening and weekend work is required, so flexibility is essential. Please indicate on your application how many hours you’re available each week.
