What could be better than a little bit of tea in the garden? How about a bit of cake (and seed for the birds)? Perhaps we should grab a pub lunch?
If that sounds like a good time to you, we know someone who you might get on with!
We support a charming 68 year old gentleman who loves looking after the birds in the garden, always makes time for a pub lunch, and rarely says no to a bit of cake or a chocolate biscuit!
We are looking for someone to visit and do just that. There is even a budget for bringing birthday and Christmas gifts. Visits are only every two months, so this role could work well even for someone with a busy schedule.
If you are a calm and kind person who enjoys taking time out to relax, this could be just the role for you. Get in touch!
