I intend to join multiple societies – whether it’s the Warwick Arts and Drama Group or the Taylor Swift society I intend to enjoy my time in between studies. As I’ll literally be going from zero to 100% in terms of my care support, it’s important to me that whoever I share this journey with can demonstrate compassion, discretion and patience, is a good listener and understand that this may be just as awkward for them as it will me in the first instance! I would like to use the opportunity to expand my horizons while at university, introduce regular activities such as swimming to my weekly routine and have the courage to explore beyond the boundaries of the university campus to attend gigs, performance or nights out, just as all other fresher students would when away from home for the first time. My intellectual and mental capacity are unaffected by my condition, but I do need assistance with most aspects of daily living due to underlying muscle weakness.” Care experience is not required as full training of our client's particular requirements will be provided.
