Signing her way to success

Sharon, who we support, is poised to become a sign language teacher to help Discovery colleagues communicate better with the people they support.
Sharon has been attending day services in Somerset for many years and was keen to find a job that would challenge her. She has been working with Supported Employment coach Amy Fussell, who recognised Sharon’s signing skills and experience. Anoushka Cross picked up the baton when Amy went on maternity leave, and together they made Sharon’s aspirations a reality.
