My family are incredibly important to me and are a huge part of my life. I also love Disney, especially 80’s and 90’s classic films, and I have an amazing collection of castles and toys from these movies. Although I am non-verbal, with patience and support you will see me for who I am. Your support will enable me to live a more fulfilling and fun-filled life.

I am looking for enthusiastic and caring Personal Assistants / Companions to help and support me as I learn to live independently whilst you remain my friend and companion.

- Willing to undertake training by shadowing team members and completing further training courses

**Important considerations**
- I am very sensitive to smells and love for my clothes to be fully clean.
- It is extremely vital for me to decompress between activities and socialising, which I do by relaxing on my Kindle Fire and watching Disney films. Therefore, it is very important my Kindle is always fully charged.
