Let Us Introduce You To Agnes, Keith And Mark

Agnes lives in her own home in with her son. Agnes is a very socialable person and like to be part of the community and regularly visits her friends. Agnes likes to be independent as much as possibly but does require support with meal preparation, and personal care and support with mobility.

Keith has cerebral palsy and has a very outgoing personality and great sense of humour. Keith enjoys likeminded people and likes people who are chatty and like to have a laugh.

Mark lives in his own home and enjoys attending a lunch club where he meets his friends and has a meal. Mark is very independent but does have dementia this means he can become forgetful in his day to day life. Mark is quite a reserved man but if you can find something to talk about that he enjoys he will openly converse in the topic. John requires support with personal care , meal preparation and medication.

That is why Agnes, Keith and Mark need you! Will you bring your best so that they can live their best life?
