My name is Chloe and I'm a happy 28 years old,  but despite my age I am a vulnerable individual and require a lot of support when I'm out and about.  I have the genetic condition Di George Syndrome which I was born with.  This Means I have learning disabilities and have scoliosis.  I also have a heart valve missing which requires future surgery.  This sometimes makes me breathless.

I enjoy being occupied and I love being taken out and being entertained. I am very easily occupied and enjoy socialising, chatting, going for a coffee, bowling, cinema, theatre, shopping.....in fact, just going out somewhere.

I don't have many dislikes but can be overwhelmed by new situations and when things are out of my control. I also can get overwhelmed in crowded and busy situations.
