About this role
About M
M is a 13-year-old teen who is very tall for his age and has a global developmental delay, therefore is not functioning at age 13. He also has Klinefelter syndrome and Autoimmune Hepatitis. M requires supervision in the community due to limited awareness of danger.
He has a lovely sense of humour, enjoys watching YouTube, playing on his Nintendo Switch, swimming, and getting out and about. He loves hugs and can sometimes ask strangers for them, so keeping him safe is always the priority. M does not like heights or lifts.
