Site Map
A guide to the pages of Getting A Life and what each one is for.
Where to start
Getting A Life is a project for young people with severe learning disabilities. It is about raising aspirations, making changes to the system and creating a clear path to paid employment. This page explains how the pages of the site fit together, so that a young person, a family member or a professional can find what they need without searching at random.
If you are new to the project, begin with About, which explains why the work exists and who it is for. The Timeline then shows how the work has developed, one stage at a time.
Pages about the work
The core pages describe the aims of the project and the places where it operates. The Areas page explains where the work takes place and how local settings are approached. The Resources page gathers practical material that can be used at home, in school and in college.
Each of these pages is written in plain English, and each one can be read on its own.
