Please read the Job Description carefully before providing information in this Section of the Application Form. Give details of your previous employment or experience which you think would help you to do this job. (required): My professional background in fitness instruction and hospitality has equipped me with the essential skills required to excel in this role. Working as a Level 3 Personal Trainer and fitness instructor requires a high level of responsibility, acute attention to safety, and an understanding of individuals diverse physical and emotional needs. I am highly experienced in supervising people, keeping a watchful eye on their wellbeing, and maintaining strict client confidentiality. Additionally, my previous role at Yo! Sushi proved my ability to remain calm, patient, and highly organized in busy, public environments. These combined experiences mean I am excellent at time management, highly observant of safety risks, and skilled at building trusted, supportive relationships.

What qualities do you think are important when working as a personal assistant with a disabled person? (required): Patience and empathy: Giving the individual space and time to process information and navigate their environment at their own pace without rushing them. Reliability and punctuality: Being exceptionally dependable, especially when public transport and fixed activity schedules are involved, as consistency builds trust and reduces anxiety. Alertness and safety awareness: Remaining highly observant of the surrounding environment to preemptively identify risks and ensure physical and emotional safety. Respect for independence: Understanding that a personal assistant is there to empower and support the individual, not to take over or diminish their autonomy. Discretion and confidentiality: Maintaining professional boundaries and protecting the individuals privacy at all times.

How do you think you can contribute towards the needs and the independence of a disabled person? (required): I believe true independence comes from providing the right balance of security and encouragement. I can contribute to this by offering a steady, dependable presence that allows the individual to step out of their comfort zone and safely access the community. Rather than taking over tasks, I will support them in navigating public transport and local activities, stepping back when they are confident and stepping in whenever guidance or reassurance is needed. By being exceptionally punctual and maintaining a consistent weekly routine on Wednesdays, I can help reduce the anxiety of travel and scheduling. My goal is to build a trusted partnership where they feel safe, respected, and fully empowered to enjoy their chosen activities with complete confidence.

What is it about PA work which appeals to you? (required): What appeals to me most about PA work is the opportunity to make a meaningful, direct impact on an individual’s daily life. While I enjoy working in broader customer service and fitness roles, PA work offers a unique chance to provide focused, one-on-one support. I find it deeply rewarding to help someone overcome barriers, build confidence, and maintain their independence. I look forward to building a reliable routine and a trusted partnership where my patience, punctuality, and calm nature can directly contribute to someone feeling safe and empowered in their community.

What are your hobbies/interests? (required): My main passion lies in health, fitness, and overall physical and mental wellbeing. As a Level 3 Personal Trainer and pole fitness instructor, I spend a lot of my spare time staying active, designing fitness routines, and keeping up to date with health and nutrition. Aside from fitness, I enjoy learning new things and staying active keeps me highly motivated, focused, and patient, which helps me bring a positive and dependable attitude to everything I do.
