About me.

Hi!

My name is Alf, I’m 10 years old, and my Mam and Dad are looking for a special person to hang out with me and take me on fun adventures!

I love gaming (seriously—I could talk about it for hours!), swimming, walks, the beach, trampolining, and anything that keeps me busy and having fun. Sometimes I find it hard to stay focused on things I’m not into, but if you love gaming or just having a laugh, we’ll get along great!

I have Autism and ADHD, which means sometimes I can get stressed, impulsive, or shout when I’m feeling overwhelmed—but don’t worry, my family can help you learn how to help me calm down again. I also have a younger brother, Charlie, who has Autism and a learning disability too. We love each other but sometimes need space apart, which is where you come in!

What I’m looking for:

  • Someone kind, patient, and fun who loves to keep busy.
  • Someone who enjoys gaming!
  • Someone who can help me regulate when I’m stressed or upset (don’t worry, you’ll get advice and support from my grown-ups too).
  • Ideally someone with experience of Autism and ADHD.
  • A driver (preferred) who can take me to cool places like the park, beach, trampoline parks or even just for an ice cream.

The Role:

  • You’ll be my Personal Assistant—helping me have fun, explore new activities, and giving me some chill time away from home.
  • Hours are mostly weekends, around 4 hours, but we’re flexible and can chat about what works for you.
  • During school holidays, we might be able to plan even more fun adventures together.

If you’re caring, full of energy, love gaming, and want to make a real difference in a young lad’s life, then I’d love to meet you!
