About me
I am a teenage girl living in the Cwmavon area of Port Talbot with my family and pets. I have cerebral palsy, autism and learning difficulties which all affect my mobility. I am a wheelchair user and I am non-verbal. I can communicate what I want but you will have to learn how I express myself. I love being outside, Trampolining, swimming, playing on the swings and listening to music. I also like going to theme parks, taking part in gymnastics and dance classes and visiting zoos. When I\'m not being a thrill seeker I enjoy watching telly and films. I am outgoing and fun and enjoy the time I spend out with my PA. I\'m looking for a PA who is happy to take me out in all weathers to different activities and who is happy to travel a bit further afield during school holidays so we can have a full day out.
