Hi, I’m L, I’m 14 years old and I live with my aunt and older sister. I love going to Buttercups especially when my best friend stays too.
I love dancing and listening to music. I enjoy spinning and I may take your hand and spin around as this relaxes me. I love being outdoors, visiting the park, running climbing and going on adventures. I also love baking and decorating cakes with my friends.
I have no road safety awareness and may run ahead on an outing if I become excited. You should hold my hand and give me clear instructions before we go anywhere. I have hearing loss, I don’t like wearing my hearing aid, you should encourage me to wear my hearing aid at all times, you should ensure that you communicate with me face to face.
Are you ready to make a real difference to me and people like me?
