Details
I’m a 34-year-old man living with Friedreich’s Ataxia, which affects my balance, coordination, and muscle control (similar to MS). I value kindness, empathy, and a person-centred approach to care.
Although I try to do as much as I can for myself, I need support with all aspects of daily living — including personal care, domestic tasks, shopping, cooking, and engaging in activities.
I enjoy going to the gym, and I have a dog and a cat, so it’s important that my P.A. is an animal lover.
I’m currently looking for someone who can cover when p.a's are off, with around 4+ hours a week available at present. There may be additional hours in the future, and I’m happy to be flexible depending on availability.
If you’re kind, reliable, and enjoy helping others live independently, I’d love to hear from you
