She is a bubbly lady with a great sense of humour, enjoying banter with those close to her and has a naturally gregarious and mischievous personality. Candidates will need to have a natural sense of fun and zest for life to keep up with Hannah's enthusiasm for living life to the full. Hannah requires support in every area of her activities of daily living including; personal care, domestic organisation (washing/cleaning/cooking), mealtimes, mobilising safely, driving, scheduling her timetable and activities, using electronic devices and caring for her dog.
