About Me
Hi, I’m a 20-year-old man with ASD, who’s kind, helpful, and funny. I’m looking for a Personal Assistant / Support Worker who I can genuinely relate to – someone who feels more like a friend while still supporting me to get out and do the things I enjoy.
I’m really into football – I take part in sessions with Brighton & Hove Albion through their community programme, and I enjoy watching Wick play on Sundays too. I like going to the gym, heading out for lunch at cafés, and shopping for food.
I’m also into history, geography and politics, so if you enjoy a good chat about the, we’ll probably get on well. I like visiting places such as Amberley Museum and going for walks around Arundel. If we’re travelling further afield, you’ll need to use your own car.
What Matters Most

- Is easy to talk to and has a good sense of humour
- Takes the time to get to know me properly
- Supports me to be independent and confident
- Is reliable and has a driving licence with access to a car
This role is about more than just support – it’s about helping me enjoy life, try new things, and do what other 20-year-olds are doing, with the right person alongside me.
