About The Role
Driving licence and own vehicle essential
I am a creative and ambitious woman looking for a kind, patient, and dependable female Muslim Personal Assistant to support me to live independently and pursue my personal, academic, and creative goals.
I experience severe obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), particularly contamination fears and ritual behaviors, alongside agoraphobia, anxiety, and periods of significant distress. My Islamic faith and religious practices are an important part of my life, so I am looking for someone who can work sensitively and respectfully around both my faith and my individual support needs.
The role will begin at 4 hours per week but is expected to develop as I move into my own home and become increasingly independent.
