Who You’ll Be Supporting
The gentleman supported by SeeAbility in his own home, is looking for resilient, patient, and non-judgemental individuals to help him live life to the fullest.

At home, he enjoys jigsaw puzzles, crafting, and creating art from magazines. He has autism and mild learning disabilities, and while his behaviour can sometimes be physically challenging, he’s seeking someone dependable and compassionate who’s ready to make a real difference.
