Tuesday to Friday 10:30am until 4pm (weekend possible). Rachel was a fit and active, working mum of twin boys. She loved mountain biking and camping with the family. Sadly Rachel was diagnosed with MND in 2021. She's no longer independent and is fully chair bound. Rachel has had to adjust to a lot of life changes but still likes going for coffee, is a regular at Wetherby cinema, enjoys trips to Harlow Carr and hydrotherapy at Rudding Park. It is important that the PA will be able to work in a family setting. She must have a full UK driving licence as the support is mainly getting her out and about and supporting her to remain as independent as possible.
