Summary
I am a young boy living in Gorseinon. I have an interest in scooters, bikes and skating. I would enjoy being taken to skateparks so I can use my scooter. It will be important for me to build a strong relationship with my personal assistant as I can be anxious when meeting new people and it’s important for me to feel comfortable around people looking after me. When being taken out to do activities I will need someone to be attentive when looking after me as I have a fear of crowds. I have a good sense of humour and become very chatty after getting to know someone. I also enjoy being taken out for food to restaurants of my choice.
