As written by the client..

I have cerebral palsy, a chronic UTI and PTSD. I am currently in my 3rd year of studying social work at Salford university. The reason why I decided to study social work is mainly due to my past experiences and I want to become the social worker that I never had growing up.

I enjoy going on walks, going to the cinema, listening to music and having a good laugh. I am a kind, funny, thoughtful person who appreciates the little things in life. I try to make this job as straightforward as possible. I also try and make it enjoyable for the both of us. Even though it involves a lot of practical work such as cooking, cleaning, giving me a shower, helping me get dressed etc it does also have its benefits and every day is different. Some days can be more hands on than others but it all balances itself out as long as we are both willing to work together.
