Are you ready to embark on a rewarding journey of care and companionship? Join a team of Personal Care Assistants for a unique opportunity to make a meaningful impact on the life of a young man with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.

Hi, my name is Neil I’m a young man in my 40s with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. I have complex care needs; I breathe through a tracheostomy and require the use of a ventilator 24/7. I have very limited mobility and I am confined to an electric wheelchair, requiring full assistance. I require care by a team of Personal Care Assistants who work on a 2-to-1 basis to support me. I live at home with my mother.

This is an exciting opportunity for a friendly, reliable, and a compassionate individual who is passionate about care work and eager to provide full support in my daily life in an informal, relaxed home environment.

I’m looking for someone caring and understanding who is not afraid to take on commitment and responsibility of helping to maintain my health and wellbeing, as well as this being a part of a great team.

Experience is not necessary as comprehensive training will be provided to enable you to safely and competently carry out all the duties of this role.

As part of the team, you'll have the chance to explore new places. I love it when my PA’s comes up with ideas to try new things. I am quite keen on going to concerts, festivals, etc. I also really enjoy watching tv and movies (especially Marvel), listening to a wide range of music, playing computer games and reading. I’m a huge Formula 1 fan too and make use of a lot of technology and gadgets. You will get the opportunity to accompany me whenever I go out for the day including, holidays, or social activities, such as shopping, visits to the cinema, concerts and formula 1.

To give you an idea, this year I’ve had the great chance of visiting places like Longleat, Marwell zoo and a fat boy slim concert. Upcoming I’ve got Goodwood and Comicon which will be a 3 day away trip in Birmingham and with many more come
