I’m looking to put some much-needed support in place for my lovely parents, both 88, who live in Sandwick. They both have some needs including prompting for medication, support with personal care and support around the house for them to carry on living independently.

We’re looking for kind, reliable carers to assist them.

Support Needed:

• Morning visits (2 hours each day) to help them get up and start the day.
• Additional daily support (for approx. one month):
  • Lunchtime
  • Teatime
  • Bedtime
• Weekly help:
  • 2 hours of cleaning
  • 2–3 hours of batch cooking

There may be other flexible hours available as well, depending on availability and interest.

We realise that not all of the hours can be covered by one person so we will be looking to set up a rota that can meet these needs.  If you’re a compassionate Personal Assistant or carer who could help please get in touch.
