Job Description:
I am a young woman who is looking for a sighted guide. I am totally blind and need support to access the community safely.
I like to go to Water World gym, which offers spin class and dance fit class, and I love going for walks outside. I also enjoy going around the shops or participating in activities in town. I enjoy the cinema and have also enjoyed the open-air theatre in Erdigg. I need a sighted guide who is energetic and can support me in accessing the community.
If my parents are at work, I may need support from the sighted guide to access shops, especially for special occasions when I want to shop for presents.
I like to try new activities, and I want my sighted guide to suggest and be active in proposing new challenges for me. If they see something that I might enjoy, I would appreciate their suggestions.
I love horse riding, which I did in school/college, and I want to pursue this in the summer with support from my sighted guide.
