Hourly Personal Assistants for a Young Adult with Cerebral Palsy – Birmingham
Are you a recent graduate and not sure what to do next? Or are you someone with a passion for making a positive impact in others’ lives?
We have an amazing opportunity for two Personal Assistants to support a young woman with Cerebral Palsy in her family home. This is a rewarding role supporting an independent, creative, and sociable young adult to live life to the fullest.

About Our Client
Our client has Cerebral Palsy and is a full-time electric wheelchair user.
She is a confident, funny, and outgoing person who enjoys socialising with friends and family. She is highly motivated, creative, and enjoys keeping active and involved in the things she loves.
Written by our client
“I am a determined and creative person who likes learning and trying new things. I like anything creative and love going out shopping. I also enjoy eating out, going to the theatre, concerts, cinema, and exploring new places.
If I’m relaxing, I like watching Strictly Come Dancing or a good romantic comedy, with pizza and good chats. I aim to get to the gym twice a week to use the exercise bike and try new equipment. I listen to all different types of music, from rock covers to worship songs. At the weekend, I go to church, and I’m involved in my local community and theatre projects.”
About the Job
This is a fantastic opportunity to truly make a positive difference to somebody else’s life and support our client to achieve her goals and aspirations. This role offers genuine job satisfaction and the opportunity to build a positive working relationship in a relaxed family home environment.
We are looking for positive, like-minded PAs to assist with day-to-day living and general support, helping our client to lead as independent a life as possible.
Our client would like someone who is bubbly, fun, reliable, and happy to support her with social activities, appointments, hobbies, and getting out and about.
This role goes far beyond simply personal care work. It includes all the fun things you would expect a young adult to enjoy, such as days out, socialising, shopping, attending events, and much more.
