I like animals, enjoy playing pool and darts. I enjoy getting out and about when itβs good weather, and I also enjoy football (I used to play a lot of football prior to my accident). I am also a Leeds FC fan too!
I need assistance with elements of my day to day routine including showering, dressing and bowel management plan. I require support with preparing meals β general day to day things.
