About Me
I am a man in my 40s living in the Barry area with my two French bulldogs, who can be excitable at times. I am supported by the Vale Locality Mental Health Team.
I can become overwhelmed and my mood can fluctuate, so I am looking for someone who is calm, patient, and understanding. I would value both practical and emotional support to help me manage day-to-day life and move forward positively.
I have spent many years living in a stressful situation, and because I have been hurt in the past, I can find it difficult to build trust. Having the right support would help me make a fresh start and develop greater stability and confidence. I respond best to people who are respectful, consistent, and reassuring.
My interests include martial arts and motorbikes. I also identify as Irish Traveller, which is an important part of who I am, and I would like to be supported by someone who is culturally aware and respectful.
Purpose of the Role
To provide support and assistance within my home and with shopping for food and essential items, helping me to manage day-to-day tasks more easily.
Hours of Work
- 8 hours per week
- Split over 2 days, spaced apart as working days too close together can be overwhelming
- Days may vary depending on appointments
Rate of Pay
- £14.60 per hour
Main Duties
- Regular light cleaning and general tidying of the house
- Support with organising appointments and responding to letters
- Making phone calls, paying bills, and assisting with general errands
- Shopping for food and essential items, with encouragement to eat regularly
- Providing emotional support and understanding in relation to my mental health
Type of person required
The ideal candidate will be:
- Calm, patient, and reliable
- Flexible and efficient
- Comfortable around dogs
- Comfortable being around a smoker (note: I do not smoke inside the house)
- Understanding of mental health, either through professional experience or personal lived experience
- A driver with business class insurance
Additional Information
This is a part-time role but will be treated as formal employment. Applicants must:
- Have a National Insurance number
- Be willing to complete a trial period
- Be paid on a four-weekly basis, with appropriate holiday pay
- Provide satisfactory references
- Complete a DBS (Police) Check prior to starting (cost covered by the Local Authority)
- Have the legal right to work in the UK
Thank you
