I’m a 50-year-old man with a spinal cord injury and a full-time wheelchair user, looking for a reliable, caring and practical Personal Assistant to help me manage my day-to-day life.
The role involves early morning starts, assisting with personal care, food preparation and general everyday tasks, as well as helping with anything unexpected that may come up.
