Personal Assistants (PAs) are employed by disabled people, so that they can live their life, their way.

Working as a PA  is about building a strong relationship, and supporting someone to reach their goals, whatever they may be.

There’s plenty in it for you too – it’s flexible and varied, with lots of opportunity for growth and development.

Whatever your background – you can Make an Impact.

A role like no other 

Meet Helen, Michael and Alisdair – they’re all PAs with very different roles.

Support for PAs

Most PAs often work directly for the person that they support, so your route to information and advice may differ from other workplaces.

There is a range of help available, including the digital PA handbook and more tailored advice and training from the PA Network Scotland, and local independent support organisations.
