Female Personal Assistants required

A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF

I am a 30 year old young lady with many interests, especially going swimming, horseback riding, being out and about socialising, which include going to cafes, pubs, music venues, and discos. I love children and babies and have enjoyed volunteering with play groups.

I have a significant learning disability, controlled epilepsy and am non-verbal, although I am able to communicate with some Makaton and my own signing.

I am seeking a personal assistant to support me to enjoy being out in the community and with physical and emotional welfare. Personal care will be involved as I am incontinent.

I enjoy swimming, horse riding, and going to city centres, and other outdoor activities where I can get some exercise. I am a people person who likes to socialise and not stay in.

I also like dressing up as I find people are more receptive to me approaching them and their families as I like to say hi to everyone.

My dislikes are the cinema and bowling, although at the bowling centre they play good music and I enjoy shooting pool hand over hand or playing the games like centipede.
