Job Purpose: I am a happy and energetic 13 year old boy and would like a Personal Assistant to support me in the community and take me to leisure activities. I really enjoy going bowling or to the cinema and I am also very happy playing football, going to the park and gaming. I would love a PA who has lots of energy and enjoys the same activities as me.
I have a diagnosis of ADHD and ASD. I am unaware of danger and need support to keep safe when I am out in the community, especially crossing roads. I would like you to remind and teach me about dangers. I do not really like busy areas because it confuses me sometimes.
