An introduction to Annie:
Annie lives in her own flat in Edinburgh and is supported to live independently. She is a lovely young woman who enjoys spending time with her team. Although she has a physical disability, she is fully capable intellectually and has numerous qualifications.
As Annie, who has a pretty wicked sense of humour, she enjoys having a chat and a laugh with her team, it is important to her that they have a good sense of humour too.
Another thing Annie really likes is going to Edinburgh and Scotland home rugby games with her Stepdad and she regularly visits the local library to get both printed and audio books. Visiting nearby Sainsbury’s for shopping is also a favourite as she does love a bargain!
Annie likes watching the news, movies and a variety of other programmes, particularly on Netflix and Disney+, and she likes to chat about these with whoever is supporting her that day. She also enjoys watching a variety of sports on TV including tennis, athletics and rugby, to name a few.
Christmas time is her favourite time of the year as she loves the atmosphere and, of course, Christmas movies, which she tries to resist watching from September … but usually fails! Annie also likes music and she especially likes pop and rock and enjoys watching music videos on her TV or computer.
Annie needs a dedicated team around her who are compassionate and person centred and who will respect her wishes, whilst providing the physical support for her to maintain her independence.
Annie would like a team who enjoy supporting her in these interests and are able to make her feel happy and safe whilst enabling her to live her best life!
If this is you, we would love to hear from you.

Hi, I’m Max and I live in De Paul House. Having a full flat to myself, which is one of the 9 flats, in the project gives me my own space and I have the option to come to communal areas if I want to, so it is a good balance.
As a young adult who has experienced trauma and adverse childhood experiences, including separation and loss this at times has caused me to display what others see as challenging behaviour. I would like to grow and gain independent living skills which include managing money, shopping and cooking skills, managing my health, building my training and employability skills and addressing any addictive behaviours.
To achieve this I would like someone to support me by helping me to access resources like mental, physical and sexual health services, create budget plans and weekly shopping lists, help me keep my flat tidy and laundry up to date, access addiction services, offer me weekly flat checks and monthly key sessions and support me to recognise my own potential and self worth through self-esteem building achievements.
