Description

Two films made for training Deaf Youth Workers at Bradford and Ilkley Community College. Both films are signed, subtitled and spoken. The first film, 'Youth Work and the Voluntary Sector', interviews people in locations across the north west about the provision for young people at youth clubs and interviews deaf people about youth clubs and volunteering. The second film, 'Balancing the Scales', addresses equal opportunities - described by one interviewee as discrimination by postcode. There are interviews at a Deaf Women's Health Group, St Peters Creche in Manchester, with Mark Todd a wheelchair user in Manchester City Council and at the Manchester Centre for the Deaf.
