About the role
To provide 1:1 support to a fun, friendly and sociable 10-year-old boy who has Duchenne muscular dystrophy and autism. My favourite thing to do is go to the cinema and have a McDonalds. I also like to visit the hobby craft shop because I am into arts and crafts. I love anything to do with the Titanic and I like animals, particularly giraffes and police dogs. I require the use of my wheelchair which I have fantastic control over and can zoom around in it quite easily. I am looking for a friendly, reliable, and caring person who I can have lots of fun with.
