Please note this is not a Swansea city council job. You will be working with a private client who received direct payments.
I am a young boy living in Gorseinon. I have a diagnosis of ASD. I am super-fast on my feet and require a lot of attention when someone is looking after me. Because I am fast on my feet, I would require someone who is energetic and enthusiastic to meet my needs. I have a lot of energy that I would like to burn off, outdoor activities are a favourite of mine and I would enjoy being taken to the beach or getting dressed up in my wetsuit and jumping in puddles. I enjoy being creative and I like doing this through using arts and crafts drawing, colouring and painting. I have a funny sense of humour and a great personality, but once iv used all my energy I enjoy spending time on my tablet watching Mr Bean and PJ Masks.
