Hi This job is really easy, its 35 hours a week and you can claim extra benefits and rent, so if you are unemployed and would like something flexible in a relaxed environment where you get to assist someone struggling to live a better life, then please apply and we will see if we get along. I need someone who can be flexible and navigate my awkward needs. I am a bit OCD so some things need to be done in a particular way, but once you get the hang of it, it ought to be really easy, so long as you are respectful of my home and my space. I don't need any self care stuff, I need help at home to clean the house, and I would like to have someone who could also motivate me and remind me to do things, potentially assist with some paperwork or phone-calls, a bit like a PA, and if you drive this will be ideal, but its not essential. I would also like someone who might be keen on gardening and could assist me with outdoor activities or on my allotment, even if its just moral support or getting the coffee/tea lunch/snack ready for the day trip. I also like to go out foraging, but I don't walk too well and so I have demotivated myself at the moment to do anything at all. A bicycle rider could also work, and if you don't have bike, then I think I have a spare. I need someone who can help me to reorganise my internal home situation, so that I can start to look beyond and feel like I am confident enough to do the other things that I love. I have a multitude of physical ailments that can affect my mental state of mind and I loose my motivation, but when someone is helping me, it can transform everything, so that I want to do more. You won't necessarily all the time be doing stuff alone. I am neuro-divergent, so I have a specific way of doing things and processing. You will need to be patient and be able to explain things to me in a calm and simple way and allow me to process in my own time. Sometimes I will need to explain something back to you, or process it by writing it down, or looking into it further. Without a carer it is extremely frustrating and depressing for me, especially with my home being dysfunctional. I can rarely focus on doing activities that I enjoy or need to do to improve my health. I would like to go to a gym and do yoga, attend art classes and art therapy, attend the allotment regularly and not worry about not being able to water the plants some days. If you could help me with stuff like this then you will be perfect for this job. I am good at planning what I need to do and it helps me to get it off my mind, but I need someone who can follow instructions and get things done with a keen interest. So we might even be having fun!! Perks of the job will be that if we grow food successfully then I am willing to share surplus. I have many skills, that when ignited and put into practice, can benefit many people and anyone who helps me, I am more than happy to help in return. I am very helpful generally, but I need to help myself right now. So If you think that you could be a good fit then please contact me and we can talk over the phone and then arrange a visit and then get you signed up if everything fits. There might be a waiting period for payments to go through, as this job is government funded, but you can be assured that all payments will backdated, and other benefits will be supported by this job and you will have free time to pursue your own interests, get support with funding for further education and courses, receive housing benefit and council tax and potentially other income supplements, and be doing a great deed to help a disabled person to feel like they have a place in the world. I believe you can also work an additional amount of hours and receive an additional income while doing this job, but you will need to check this and make sure that you are accountable for any extra work or time that you choose to do and make sure that it does not affect this Job, should you want it. Pay: £81.90 weekly Inclusive of: income support / housing benefit, reduction of council tax, grants or bursaries for education, pension credit, support from your local council. hours: 35 flexible including: contributions to petrol if you have a car, mileage will need to be worked out and shown, with receipts available to be copied. Duties include: hoovering and cleaning floors, dishes, kitchen sides and bathroom. Sweeping outdoors occasionally. Organising and moving sometimes heavy items around the house, or to be transported. Some paperwork, admin, telephone, assisting with daily tasks and motivational support. Assistance and/or motivational support for errands such as shopping, gardening, allotment, medical, gym, art classes. Some basic cooking, maybe breakfast and/or tea and coffee. Watering plants. The relationship between myself and the carer needs to be fluid and flexible and good natured. I do not want or need anyone to boss me around, rather to be able to listen to my needs, and to be able to respond and assist kindly. Any motivational support must be gentle and non pressurised or the contract will be immediately terminated upon reflection and reassessment. I myself might seem bossy sometimes, so I need someone who can relate to my struggles, and pain that I endure and understand that I am not always able to communicate in long extensive sentences and sometimes I cannot speak effectively at all. I need someone who can develop the patience to listen and who has the ability and sense to write things down and to remember as well as being able to adjust and to ask, as each day can be different and It's important to always ask permission first, as you will be working in my home. Sometimes I will want to be left alone, and we will need to make up the time another day, or you will simply get time off. We will need to work out a schedule between us and agree that we can be flexible with this as time goes on. Thank you so much, if you have managed to read this far then you might just be perfect for this job. Mirna
