About the Role
I am a young gentleman in my early 20s with complex health needs, living at home with my family and our pet dog. I am very active and like to spend time at home and in the community with my care team. I play and coach wheelchair football and enjoy going out for food, going to the cinema, and walking the dog. When I am at home, I enjoy watching films and playing on my Xbox. I can communicate well and have a good awareness of my complex needs and the support that I require.

I will also require support with my ventilation and suctioning needs as required.
Car drivers with a full, clean driving license are essential as I require support to access the community, and candidates must meet the requirements for motor insurance purposes.
