Young man seeking male PA in Norwich- 28 hours a week @ £9.91 p/h
Apply at UKCIL.com. Reference: b06ff616
Job Purpose:
I am a friendly young man with Asperger’s who is looking for a Personal Assistant to accompany me when leaving the house for activities such as going for walks and travelling into the city centre. I like to go out regularly, every Tuesday evening I attend a board games café and every fourth Friday of the month I attend a Japanese Culture Club. I also enjoy playing video games such as Animal Crossing and Sonic The Hedgehog, pitch and putt and occasional cinema trips.
When I am outside of my home I do not like to touch anything and will require assistance with things such as the opening of doors and pressing buttons at pedestrian crossings. Someone who has their own car would be highly advantageous as I do not like to travel on buses.
I enjoy going for long walks, sometimes up to 4 or 5 miles and I would ideally like someone who also enjoys walking long distances.
