Summary

My son is a lovely lad of almost 18. Don’t be intimidated by his height, he is very much a ‘gentle giant.’

He is very independent and manages all his personal care himself. He just loves coming home from school, sitting and building his Lego. We need a PA who will be happy to sit with and supervise him whilst he does this.

There may be the opportunity in the future to take him out and about so you can enjoy activities together.
