Let us introduce you to Joe

Joe is a larger than life character who takes pride in his appearance and likes to keep his flat to a high standard and looks for staff input to achieve this.

He has a snooker table in his flat and likes nothing better than a game of snooker and a good laugh with staff. He loves music and has a vast knowledge of different artists and songs throughout the years. Joe gets support throughout the day and utilises this to carry out his love for drawing, watching quizzes (and trying to beat staff), cooking and telling staff jokes which he gets from his Alexa device.

He has a passion for fishing and enjoys doing this in the hotter months with staff or family members. He enjoys watching darts and snooker as well as scrolling through You Tube for "classic" darts matches to rewatch. He is very sociable and likes to eat out with staff. Staff support means a lot to Joe as it helps him achieve the life he wants to live.

Will you bring your best so Joe can live his best life?
