About the Child
I am an enthusiastic, sociable boy who loves life. I have autism, ADHD, and Global Developmental Delay. My interests include sharks, stingrays, owls (especially Old Brown), farm animals, horses, and puppets. I use puppets at school to help me understand instructions, especially when I prefer not to listen to grown-ups. I enjoy watching my iPad with others, giving cuddles, and feeling people's hair. I like going to playgrounds but need support to stay safe. I have a great sense of humour. I get tired quickly due to hypermobility, so I use a wheelchair for long walks.
