As written by them
Hi, Im a third-year student at UCA Farnham, studying Fine Art. Im a full-time
wheelchair user living in a semi-accessible flat on campus. Im passionate about art
and hope you are someone who could share this passion and knowledge with me.
I would like someone with no preconceived expectation of the several complex
disabilities that can affect me in different ways. I have both neurological and physical
disabilities, including Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) and a Chiari
malformation, which can cause a range of symptoms. Please be aware that I can be
prone to seizures and fainting but nothing regularly.
I would want someone who is proactive in keeping things clean and tidy, organising
medication and laundry, and helping me with tasks that I need assistance with. I
might also require some help overnight if I have trouble regulating my temperature or
need assistance to use the bathroom. Sometimes prompting me or asking more than
once if I need something or assistance can help. I often struggle asking for help or
voicing my needs.
Qualifications and Requirements:
A full and clean UK driving license (Desirable but not essential)
Open-minded on topics such as politics, religion and relationships
Excellent sense of humour and ability to not take life too seriously
Physical fitness, patience, and a caring nature
Strong communication and listening skills
Mature and responsible attitude
Fluent in English
Clean and tidy appearance
