PM: Personal Assistant

A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF

I am an 11 year old male living in Penrhiwceiber 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!

PURPOSE OF THE JOB

The purpose of the job is to allow me to access the community while ensuring I am safe at all times as I have no awareness of danger and do have a habit of running off.

HOURS OF WORK

I have 6 hours per week 2:1 (3 hours per PA) term time and 24 hours 2:1 during the holidays (12 hours per PA)
