Hi, I'm looking for a vegetarian, countryside-loving person to help look after my partner as a live-in carer/PA. We live in an old rambling farmhouse with 4 acres in a beautiful spot by itself in the hills of mid-Wales. We are both life-long vegetarians, and about 90% vegan, and try to eat organic wholefoods where possible, though we are flexible too. We are environmentally conscious, but also embrace technology (eg. we have Alexa and Echo dots round the house, so my partner can call for help when needed).
My partner is 73, has Parkinson's and heart problems, can walk short distances with a stick, but tires easily. I work from home in the mornings and need someone to help him get up, a bit of personal care, make breakfast, tidy up etc…, as well as help with other meals, and just help around the house as needed.
We have local authority funding (to be reviewed after 6 months) for about 4 or 5 hours a day (weekdays with weekends negotiable), and we would of course provide a room and food. We are looking for someone who will appreciate living in an old house in the countryside, and who would see the short hours (and hence relatively low weekly remuneration) as an opportunity to enjoy having time to do other things too, whether that is doing your own thing, or joining in socially with whatever we are doing.
It is essential that: you are a non-smoker, vegetarian/vegan, happy to cook vegan food, don't have a dog, aren't allergic to cats, are flexible about living arrangements, and happy to live in an old quirky house in the hills of Wales.
