I am a friendly, happy person currently living with my family. I'm looking for a Personal Assistant (PA) who is patient, supportive and organised to have fun with.
I have autism, dyspraxia and sensory integration disorder. This means I do need help with planning activities and keeping safe, but it also means I have a great memory, especially when it comes to my main hobby, metal detecting. I hope to find someone who shares my interests in history, swimming, gaming and music.
I like to go to lots of fun places like arcades, bowling, water parks, cinema, museums and more.

You will need to support me with:
Accessing the community
Developing my skills like cooking and cleaning
Planning and organising
Attending organised metal detecting 'digs', occasionally these can be on the weekend
Being independent, e.g. breaking down tasks into simple steps so I can do it myself
Finding and maintaining friendships
Encouraging me to stay active
About You
