🌟 Looking for a Support Role That’s Full of Heart (and a Bit of Quirk)? Meet Me! 🌟

Hi! I’m a young man with autism, and I’m searching for someone kind, calm, and funny to support me. If you love a good laugh and have a curious mind, we might just be a perfect match.

I’m passionate about all things quirky — snakes, tarantulas, fossils, animal skulls, and Lego. My world is unique, and I’d love to share it with someone who’s open-minded and genuinely interested. Trust takes time, but once it’s there, you’ll see the fun, vibrant side of me shine.

What I’m Looking For:

  • 💬 Consistency & Compassion – Especially on tough days, I need someone who’s calm and non-judgmental.
  • 🧠 Patience & Positivity – A steady presence helps me feel safe and supported.
  • 🐍 Respect for My Interests – Whether it’s chatting about fossils or caring for my pets, enthusiasm is key.
  • 😄 A Great Sense of Humour – If you can laugh with me, you’re already halfway there.

This isn’t just a job—it’s a chance to build a real connection and help someone live life to the fullest.

Essentials:

To be considered, you’ll need experience in at least two of the following:

  • Mental Health
  • Behaviours that Challenge
  • Trauma-Informed Care
  • Autism & Learning Disabilities
  • Resilience

About You:

You’re calm, caring, and thrive in challenging situations. You take initiative, stay positive, and genuinely want to make a difference. A manual UK driving licence and confidence driving different vehicles is a big plus!
