Answer 3

My girlfriend is a carer & I own a wheelchair accesable vehicle. We take people to fun places, help around the house.
We would get paid, I recon, One hour for every, five. It is instant reward, knowing the difference one can make in others lives, without costing too much. Be efficiant when you give, a smile dosn't take much & it increases in value in the giving.
