Hi – I’m Michael, Frankie’s Dad, and I am looking for two kind, reliable and fun-loving Personal Assistants to support my amazing son, Frankie. This is a 2:1 support role, where you’ll accompany Frankie on social outings, helping him stay safe while making sure he’s having the best possible time.

Meet Frankie

Frankie is a vibrant, funny, and adventurous young man. His zest for life is contagious and he brings so much joy to everyone around him. He loves the great outdoors – bike rides, trips to the park, or swimming are right up his street – and he’s always up for exploring new things. Right now, he’s especially interested in birds, though his passions often change, which means no two outings are ever the same.
