I’m an elderly lady living in the Clyne area of Neath. I have an interest in Politics and History, and enjoy watching game shows on TV. I enjoy spending time within the community and shopping. I have limited mobility, therefore I would need to be pushed in my wheelchair. I’m looking for a PA to help me get out and about, keep me company and help me to do the things I like to do, also helping me to attend appointments at times. I may request you to advocate during these appointments. I will require a PA who can drive and will be able to pick me up from my home address and transport me to desired destination.

I am a lady in my 50s living in central Neath with my pet dog and cat. I’ve worked for an insurance company for many years before I had to finish through ill health. I am a very sociable and lovely lady, and I have a good sense of humour. But I can get upset and frustrated with my situation. I have Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) which mimics stroke, MS, Epilepsy and Parkinson’s. I have frequent non-epileptic seizures, and also experience bladder and bowel issues. My condition is incurable and lifelong.  The FND also causes fatigue, which can affect my vision, hearing, speech, memory and concentration. If I overdo things I can become tired, and this can cause me to have a seizure.

I also enjoy alternative and new age things like Tarot Cards, Paganism and crystals. I’m looking for a PA to help me get out and about, keep me company and help me to do the things I like to do.

Due to my mobility issues, I require support using a bath hoist, but I try to be as independent with my personal care as possible. I do however also require support when washing my hair. I like watching soaps on TV and knitting occasionally but generally dislike arts and crafts. I enjoy a cigarette and like to go out in my car to access the community with my PA.

I am a 18 year old Autistic lady living in the Baglan area of Port Talbot.  I am looking for a personal assistant to support me out in the community and support me with life skills.  I love going out in the car for a drive, going to Starbucks and going down to the beach. Most of my time with the PA will be spent driving round places I enjoy, and sitting with me in the car when we are there. I can be very anxious so will need some reassurance when out in the community and need someone who can hold a conversation with me and put me at ease.  Routine is massively important to me. As my autism affects me in different ways I would prefer to have a PA with some experience of supporting young adults with Autism.

 I am a gentleman in my fifties living in the Crymlyn Burrows area of Swansea with my 2 friendly little dogs. I have Agoraphobia, Monophobia and Epilepsy. I also have a spinal injury and some hip problems that can affect my mobility. I normally get around on my crutches but now can get tired if I go too far. Getting out can be a bit of a chore to me so I like to do activities that help me to relax such as going to the spa/leisure centre. I will become more mobile physically over time so someone who likes things like walking, bike rides, a little gym would be beneficial. I like animals and getting out into nature. I also enjoy going to the theatre now and then. I’m a practicing Christian and would like to be able to attend church more often. 

10 hours per week to be worked over 3 days.
