Nadeem is a lovely guy who loves to chat about lots of very interesting topics and is very knowledgeable. He lives in Newcastle and has a great family support network. His brother and sister are very supportive of Nadeem’s needs and spend as much time as possible supporting him. His sister is his advocate and aids Nadeem with all matters. Nadeem attends Mosque regularly so this position requires an individual from within his community who would help him to continue attending Mosque and follow his Faith, which is very important to him.

Nadeem suffered a stroke after a brain haemorrhage in 2021 which left his with mobility issues and eye problems. Nadeem has worked extremely hard to get to where he is today and spent a long time at a rehabilitation centre where he learnt to speak and walk again.

Some domestic tasks will be required such as preparing a meal or assisting Nadeem complete his laundry. Personal care will be required as and when Nadeem requires this.
