I AM LOOKING FOR A PERSONAL ASSISTANT (PA)
Hi, I’m Dani Csangó, I’m a wheelchair user. My impairment also affects my hands, so I live 24 hours a day with PA-s who support me on a daily basis.

In my experience, this job is ideal for people who are:
- Freelancers or part-time artists
- Persons burnt out from hospitality
- marginalized groups like; refugees, Roma people, people recovering from addiction or LGBTQ people
