Personal Assistant- NKANCL

Location: Newcastle upon Tyne (NE7)

Hours of work: 3.5 hours per week.

Rate of pay: £14.20 per hour

 

A Personal Assistant is required to support our son Nikhit, who is a 15-year-old happy young man. Nikhit is a typical teenager, who wants to have independence from his parents and will look to convince you that he is always right with his way of thinking.

Nikhit has a great interest in cars and technology, and particularly likes trying out new devices. Nikhit enjoys days out going to the coast as well as the cinema and gaming centres. A driver with their own vehicle to help get out and about will be beneficial.

Nikhit uses a wheelchair at all times due to his condition, Muscular Dystrophy. Nikhit is very keen to keep his independence so will look to propel his wheelchair himself and will want to feel supported rather than cared for in social situations.
