Hello, my name is Sean Richards,

I'm based in Derby.

Last year, I met with Stand Guide who
spoke about their services in the East Midlands.
-

During September last year, I sign
posted a couple of people to Stand Guide
-
Not Synced
to help themselves or their
children to find employment.

In January this year, I received a
wonderful video from a mother who said
-
Not Synced
that she was so pleased with how Stand Guide
have supported their deaf customers.
-
Not Synced
They ensured that their CV’s were
up to scratch, provided interpreters to
-
Not Synced
allow for access in their own language
and helped them to find employment.
-
Not Synced
So far, I'm aware of 3 or 4 people who
have successfully obtained employment
-
Not Synced
through Stand Guide and
I'm sure that there are more.
-

This is really great!
-

I spoke to someone who got a job
through Stand Guide to see what
-
Not Synced
their feedback was. They were nothing
but full of praise for Stand Guide.
-
Not Synced
They said that their services were great,
the staff were awesome and supportive,
-
Not Synced
they were understanding and encouraging
them to find confidence in getting a job.
-
Not Synced
This is really pleasing to see that there
is support out there for the Deaf community
-
Not Synced
and Stand Guide is just one of
the wonderful shining examples.
