John* – You’ll be supporting John, a vibrant individual with complex needs who’s moving into a specially adapted home. John lives in a single occupancy home which is purposely adapted to meet his complex needs. He loves going out every Friday for KFC, trips to cafés and going on drives. His dad is a big part of his life, so family involvement is key and often has family visiting him.
When he is not out and about enjoying himself, he usually likes being at home listening to music (especially classical), Disney films, colouring, and outdoor fun like trampolining and swings in the garden. Routine is very important to James.
* Please note, the real name has been changed to protect the individual's identity confidentiality.
