Transition and Beyond


Newham Easy Read site is about the issues that face young people with a learning disability when they leave school or college.

Some of the information is geared to London and the Newham area but there is lots of information which could be used by anyone in the UK. There are sections on relationships, travel training, leisure, work,money,support, day services,living on your own,safety and education.
It is written in simple language with pictures and sounds so that it can be used by young people with a learning disability.
