About this Event

Join us for National PA Day at GCIL! 🎉

No two Personal Assistant, PA, roles are the same, and you don’t need to already work in social care.

A PA supports a disabled person to live their life in the way they choose. That could involve getting out and about, going to work or college, enjoying hobbies and interests, or providing support at home.

Whether you’re a student looking for part time work, looking for full time opportunities, changing direction, retired, or already working as a PA, come along and find out more.

Our National PA Day event is a chance to meet people, explore PA opportunities, learn something new and celebrate the important role PAs play.

📍 GCIL, 117–127 Brook Street, Glasgow G40 3AP
🕙 10am to 2pm

It’s a drop in event, so come along at a time that suits you.
