About me
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.
About the Role
* 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

* Finding and maintaining friendships
* Encouraging me to stay active
About You
You do not need to have formal care qualifications, but a patient, reliable, and understanding approach is essential.
A driving licence and access to a car are essential, but sometimes we can catch the bus if we plan it together.

* An understanding or experience of autism
* Happy to be outdoors in any weather (maybe not a thunderstorm)
* Happy to swim, I like water slides
