Introduction

I am young at heart lady with some sight-impairment, I am looking for a reliable, practical, and friendly person to provide support for a few hours each week. The right person will help me stay safe, while continuing to enjoy everyday activities and creative projects, and give me a little bit of my independence back.

The support may include

• Support in my Garden – helping me move around safely outdoors and assisting me with practical gardening, making being outside an enjoyable experience.

• Support with Technology – helping me understand and use my iMac computer.

• Local outings of my choosing – accompanying me on short local visits. Sometimes with purpose and sometimes just to escape to some tranquillity to enjoy my surroundings

• Support me with practical and creative activities – I enjoy making things such as clothing, knitting, curtains, shelves, and other household items. I need someone to support me to do this safely, help with materials, and work alongside me.

• To carry out any other reasonable requests that the service user may make from time to time.

An important part of the role is being able to converse naturally, sometimes describe what is happening, and explain things clearly so the experience is enjoyable, engaging, and confidence-building.
