I'm an 18-year-old young man living in Salisbury and I'm looking for a Male Personal Assistant to support me to get out and enjoy life.

You might support me to go on days out, attend activities, keep fit, meet new people or simply enjoy spending time in the community. Every week can be a little different.
I have autism, a mild learning disability and epilepsy which is well controlled. Experience isn't essential, as the right personality is more important.
