I’m a 26-year-old young lady with cerebral palsy. I have my own adapted property in Hendy where I live with my family. I am a wheelchair user and hoisted for all transfers. I enjoy the company of others and have a good sense of humour. I would like to go out into the community, to access events such as the cinema, bowling, shopping etc.

I have complex physical difficulties and receive weekly input from an occupational therapist. I’m unable to communicate verbally but have developed ways of getting my needs met. I would like my support workers to be warm, patient and reliable, to encourage and support me to access all opportunities and help me to maximise my quality of life. You will play a key part in helping to develop my day-to-day activities.
