PA profiles
Choice and control are at the heart of everything we do. Our Personal Assistant (PA) database directly connects Direct Payment employers with PAs who are available for work in your area.
By bringing together PAs and employers, we support people to live more independent lives. Search our database and take the first step towards finding your new PA today.
Use the filter on the left of the page to search profiles. Click on the PA's name to find out more about them and get in touch.
Please note: The Personal Assistants in our database are not employed or recommended by Independent Lives.
In most cases, Personal Assistants are required to pass a DBS check and reference checks before beginning employment, which Independent Lives can support you with.
To speak to a member of staff about any of the profiles listed on this site then please contact us by emailing recruitment@independentlives.org or by phoning 01903 219482 (option 4).
