What you would be

doing…

I need help with getting about as mobility can be difficult. I need crutches all the

time and quite often my wheelchair. I need help with the toilet and taking a

bath. At times I also need help with getting dressed. If my epilepsy is

particularly bad this help increases as I get anxious with falling too.

To be driven to and from lily rose centre in Chelmsford. Also local trips to places

like GP, hairdressers, barbers and also trips to cinema or coffee shops etc.

Having the odd days out to improve J’s confidence and experience new things.

Personal daily care, prepare some meals, basic laundry say putting out on line

maybe a bit of ironing as J is unable to stand. Change bedding.

The person I would

like…

Kind, encouraging as J can be stubborn and needs a firm authority to get him to

do what’s needed. Someone who can support and help J’s development of

independence to move forward with his next stage of life.

about the role important to give J the support and independence he deserves,

while still able to be in a home environment.
