Positive Practical PA

A friendly, independent lady is looking for a positive, practical Personal Assistant. This is not a care role and no specialist experience is required - the focus is on practical help, companionship, and building confidence.

The overall goal: to help set up simple systems and routines that, over time, make it easy to manage everything and venture out independently.

The role covers three main areas:

- Organisation & Life Skills: Helping simplify and organise everyday life - from planning the week, sorting paperwork and accounts (bills), to learning a useful skill such as putting up a shelf. The aim is to cut through the overwhelm, put practical systems in place, and build habits that are easy to carry forward long-term.

- Getting Out & About: Accompanying to local courses, groups, or clubs - typically just once or twice for each one - to provide a friendly, reassuring presence until it feels comfortable to go alone.

- Monthly Day Out: Once a month, heading out for the day together somewhere enjoyable, to explore, have fun, and build confidence being out and about independently.

Practical, organised, and patient - someone who's good at setting things up and explaining them clearly

- Cheerful, encouraging, and genuinely enjoys spending time with people

- Takes the initiative and provides positive motivation, always with an eye on the end goal of enabling lasting independence

- Respectful of independence - your job is to help enable someone do things for themselves, not do things for them

- Comfortable with a flexible role that evolves over time

This is a rewarding role for someone who gets satisfaction from helping another person feel more capable and connected. No care or mental health experience needed - just a positive, can-do attitude., Respectful of the employer's privacy and confidentiality

- Reliable with good timekeeping

- Able to both follow instructions and work on own initiative

- Hygienic, tidy and well organised

- Fit and healthy to undertake the required duties

- Patient and possess excellent interpersonal skills

- Honest and cheerful

- Creative

- Able to always work to high standards of health & safety
