Trevor's ideal housemate, is someone with a great sense of humour, who enjoys a good cuppa and a chat!
At 62 years old, Trevor enjoys a comfortable life in Lavington, where he shares his home with two housemates, with daily support from Life Without Barriers' disability services.
"I love the food at home and sitting down to meals with my housemates and the staff," Trevor shares with a warm smile." Said Trevor.
"There's nothing better than sitting outside with a good cup of black tea, soaking up the sun."

For Trevor, life is all about enjoying the little things. Whether he's outside with a good book or laughing at his favourite cartoons like SpongeBob, Tom and Jerry, or Scooby-Doo on his iPad.
"I love watching funny cartoons that make me laugh," Trevor says with a chuckle.
Twice a week, Trevor looks forward to his outings to the local library.
"I borrow books and magazines, and we all have a good laugh about the funny book titles when we get back home," he shares.
Trevor's interests range from classic cars to games like bingo and trivia. His passion for vintage cars is unmatched, and he can easily identify the make and model of any classic vehicle, often declaring, 'Holden cars are much better than Fords!'.
A devoted Tigers fan with a soft spot for the colours blue and purple, Trevor excels at games like Bingo, Connect Four, and trivia, particularly when it comes to maths and science.
"Maths and science were my favourite subjects in hospital," he recalls.
