16-year-old Katie was referred to the STRIVE project in
Salford with learning difficulties, predominately in
literacy. When she arrived her confidence levels were very
low and she had little interaction with her group. Over time,
Katie has gone from having very little communication skills and
confidence to being a good team player and getting involved in all
the group activities. Katie is currently working towards an
award in Employability and Personal Development, and is currently
on a work placement for two days each week at a children's
nursery.
