DPSS559 - Personal Assistant - 5 hours - Port Talbot

I am a 61 year old male living in the central Port Talbot area. I enjoy watching quizzes on TV and have previously applied to be on "Who Wants to be a Millionaire". I enjoy getting out and about in the community and I enjoy a good chat. I love watching lots of different types of sport such as rugby, boxing and football and I am a massive Liverpool fan. I am looking for a Personal Assistant to help me at home and ensure my safety, as I tend to lose my balance and can fall over.
