Job Reference (1cf491ed)
I am looking for regular support from a self-employed PA available for 4-hour shifts weekly in Fishponds area in Bristol.
I am usually a charity director and creative producer for dance by trade and morris dancer out of hours, but long covid / ME / Chronic Fatigue currently have other plans for me (mainly fatigue, brain fog and heart issues).

I'm happy to agree the scope of the role with the right person.
I'm anticipating 4-hours per week, this could be 2x 2h shifts per week or 1x 4h shift per week. Ive listed all possible windows of availability below.
