Buddy

I am looking for a friendly, enthusiastic and reliable PA Buddy to support me in getting out and about, enjoying my interests and making the most of what the local community has to offer. I am really keen on sports and would love someone who can accompany me to different sporting activities and events. My interests can vary from week to week, so there will always be something different to explore! I am happy to discuss my sporting interests and activities in more detail at interview. I enjoy going out for lunch, especially to McDonald's, and going out for walks, visiting different places and taking part in activities within the local community. I also have a real love for music, so it would be great to share that interest too! I am looking for someone who is sociable, positive, approachable and enjoys getting involved in different activities. No two weeks will necessarily be the same, so flexibility is important. The PA hours will vary from week to week, depending on activities and plans. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys being out and about, meeting people and helping someone make the most of their free time and interests. Disability and health conditions:
