I’m a friendly, chatty and determined 23‑year‑old wheelchair user looking for a kind, creative Personal Assistant with a great sense of humour. I love playing on my switch , doing arts and crafts, acting, and theatre – I recently performed in David Copperfield: A Life at Theatre Royal Bath!
I’m looking for someone considerate, positive, up for a laugh and can encourage my independence. I have limited hand dexterity so patience is key but can do standing transfers from my chair.
