Goals: To help young deaf people pursue education and employment routes through a programme of instructional modules and activities that boost their ability to make appropriate and informed decisions
Funding: Received 150,000 over three years from the National Voluntary Youth Organisations grant programme

Starting this month, a team of skilled charity employees and young mentors will deliver 16 modules on subjects including health and safety, drug awareness, managing finances and job preparation skills to 13- to 19-year-olds in schools, youth centres and residentials.
