Oliwer is a lovely little 8-year-old twin to his sister Wictoria. He lives with his mum and dad and siblings in Benwell, the family also have a lovely labrador dog. The twins were born very prematurely which has left Oliwer with learning difficulties and high functioning Autism. Oliwer struggles with communicating effectively however lately he had begun to string words together to make short sentences, he will repeat your dialogue when communicating. Oliwer relies on a buggy when he goes out into the community but recently mum has been encouraging short walks without the use of a buggy. Oliwer can manage the toilet himself most of the time however he does require some personal care with some toileting tasks.

Oliwer loves pizza and chips, its his favourite “go to” food, he also enjoys trips to McDonalds on occasion. He manages to eat and drink independently.

Oliwer is a very caring little boy and quite protective of his sister however he does not like to spend all his time with her and prefers to engage in his own activities. He loves YouTube especially “Handy Manny” songs. Oliwer can speak both polish and English when he communicates and both languages are used in the family home.

Oliwer is looking for a PA who can assist him accessing the community where he would like to engage in activities like swimming, soft play, and the Tim Lamb Centre. He does enjoy a visit to the Alan Shearer Centre too when he gets the opportunity.
