Last Friday we welcomed an ex pupil, Sammy Ahmed, to give a talk about Deaf World.

Deaf World is a charity that aims to enable and empower deaf and hard of hearing young people to access challenging opportunities and take ownership of the decisions that affect their lives through education, training, leisure, social and cultural activities.

They offer programmes that will enable young people to grow, develop, gain confidence and acquire independent living skills. Some examples could focus on opportunities such as outward bound residential, social, cultural and leisure activities,  international youth exchanges and  opportunities for employment, training and education.
