Please note this is not a Swansea city council job. You will be working with a private client who received direct payments.
A little about myself:
I am a quiet young boy. I like gaming and finding out facts about things. I have ASD which means I can get overwhelmed in places where there are a lot of people, and I will need someone with me to make sure I am ok and take me out of places if I’m not ok. I will need someone that can give me lots of reassurance. If you were my PA, I would like you to take me to places like LC2, Crazy Climb, Oakwood theme park, and other places like that. So, you would have to be fit and young. I like McDonalds and KFC. I like small animals. I am quite clever, and I like to chat about things I’m interested in, but sometimes it’s nice to be quiet and not talk.
