About Myself I'm a boy, 8 years old and live in Merthyr with my family.
My family and my Social Worker would like for me to gain confidence and independence outside my family home.
I would enjoy 1-2-1 play and interaction which will develop my social skills.
I need to gain tolerance to a variety of different social locations for example, inside shops, buildings and outdoors.
I would also like to play with other children and I enjoy playing out outdoors visiting parks etc.
To enable my independence, I will need a Personal Assistant to spend time each week supporting me to go out in the community.
This will be for 6 hours a week in School term time and 10 hours a week in School holidays.
I think I'm already quite independent, but I do struggle to ensure my own safety.
I will need reminding to stay safe throughout sessions.
