He will require guidance to establish and adapt routines and prompting for personal care.

This gentleman enjoys being active and getting out most days, so you'll find yourself going out for walks, drives in his car and out for a bite to eat. He also loves going to local discos, museums and playing a few rounds at the crazy golf, but enjoys the quiet times too and likes to chill out on his tablet to relax.
