Coffee and something tasty outside the door

Function information

Tim is a 41-year-old man with an intellectual disability. He is often very cheerful and sings a bit during the day. Things he likes to do are puzzles and good food. So he won't easily turn down a trip to the city for a cup of coffee and something tasty.

Tim can talk, but he doesn't always understand exactly what is being said to him. He also regularly asks for confirmation of what he is going to do, and he likes to hear clearly what the intention is. It is important to take this into account in your communication. Tim can walk himself, but he has difficulty doing so due to a spasm. He uses a wheelchair for longer distances.

Tim is looking for someone who wants to go into town with him every month for a cup of coffee and something tasty, and then stroll around the market or something like that.

If you would like to go out with Tim, we would love to hear from you.
