Overview
Personal Assistant to start immediately. I am a 16 year old male who has ASD. I live in Merthyr Tydfil with my mother, grandmother and one younger sibling. I am a verbal individual who can communicate to a high standard. When I feel like I am sad or not confident to speak about how I feel, I prefer to write down how I feel on a digital device like a phone or laptop. It is important to me that I have a structured routine and know what to expect prior. Playing music through my own headphones helps me relax. I may need reminders as I can get distracted. I get on well with adults and can engage in conversations with my sense of humour, especially about music and sport.
