Harvey is nearly 17 and an absolute joy to be around. He’s a big fan of gaming — especially Fortnite — and a huge Lego enthusiast (seriously, he could open his own Lego shop!). With a great personality and a wicked sense of humour, Harvey loves trips to the cinema, zoos, farms, bowling, and the seaside. 

He’s also a big animal lover, showing great kindness and care towards all creatures. Known as a gentle giant, Harvey is shy at first, but once he gets to know you, he’ll have you in fits of laughter. 

 

The role
We’re looking for a friendly and patient Personal Assistant to support Harvey in accessing the community, helping him enjoy his favourite activities and discover new ones. 

Essential requirements:

  • A good sense of humour 
  • Kind, patient, and understanding nature 
  • Ideally, some knowledge of Harvey’s interests (gaming, Lego, animals) to help build rapport 

Hours will be confirmed, but flexibility will be important.  

If you think you could be the person to help Harvey thrive and share plenty of laughs along the way, we’d love to hear from you.

At times my speech is slurred, and I struggle with words; mild aphasia.I lost the vision in my left eye due to a rare eye cancer; occular melanoma in 2019. All I need now is a parrot on my shoulder so I could do a great impression of a pirate!!
