JOB DESCRIPTIONPersonal Assistant
A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF
I am an 11 year old male living in Penrhiwceibir with my family. I have a diagnosis of ASD and am non-verbal. I enjoy the company of adults, and although I cannot talk my cheeky personality often comes through and I like to do silly things to make people laugh like putting my shoes on the wrong feet! I do struggle with being around lots of people if it’s a situation I don’t like, and this can sometimes cause meltdowns so I need someone who is patient and is able to help me calm down. My favourite things to do are go swimming, going on the train, being driven around, and eating McDonalds!
