About The Employer
I have a few health problems - learning difficulties and short term memory - like to go out for walks and going for a coffee - would like help with cooking and like company. Someone who is a good listener. I need someone who is a competent driver and enjoys walking. I also need help with letters, forms etc and medical appointments and someone who can help with IT. I also would like someone with a bubbly personality because I suffer with depression and a cheery person helps lift my mood. I have a friendly happy demeanour and enjoy a laugh and a joke.
