ABOUT THE ROLE

I am a young man in my early 20's with complex care needs. I use a powered wheelchair to move around, but my disability and care needs doesn't stop me having a fantastic sense of humour and a wonderful quality of life.

I live at home with my family and our pet dog, Oscar. It's really important to us that you like dogs as Oscar is a huge part of our life and I love to take him out for walks.

I play and coach powerchair football. This is a huge passion of mine.I enjoy being active and going out in the local community with my carers.

I particularly enjoy going to the cinema and going out for food.When I am at home I enjoy watching football, watching films, playing on my X-box with my friends and having fun.ABOUT YOU

I will also require support with my ventilation and suctioning needs as required.

Car drivers with a full, clean driving license are essential as I require support to access the community, and candidates must meet the requirements for motor insurance purposes to drive my vehicle.
