- Helping with reading, games, hobbies & interests
- Simple gardening or very basic DIY
- Help with pet care & dog walking
- Basic help with iPads & computers
- Respite/sitting for family carers
- Basic Dementia support

You will need a full driving license & your own clean, reliable car. Also, you must own a reliable smart phone.

**WE WILL ONLY CONSIDER YOUR APPLICATION IF YOU SEND A COVER NOTE SAYING:
1) Why you think this role would suit you,
2) Any caring experience you might have (life or professional),
3) What your current situation is,
4) What availability you can offer each week (days/hours).

We look forward to hearing from you soon.
