Personal Assistant / Support Worker

I'm looking for a reliable, kind, and caring Personal Assistant / Support Worker to support me in the Westbury Park area, working 22.5 hours per week at £12.60 per hour. You will help me to live independently in my own home and maintain the lifestyle that is important to me. I value my independence and enjoy spending time in my garden and, when able, accessing the community. As my health needs are complex, it’s important that you are patient, understanding, and adaptable.
