Each programme is tailored to the young person and their agreed route.
Training may include:
walking safely in public;
road safety and safe crossings;
using buses, trains or other public transport;
recognising landmarks, stops and stations;
managing travel passes, money and belongings;
knowing who to ask for help;
dealing with delays, changes or unexpected situations.
Training is gradual and paced around the young person’s needs. There is no “pass” or “fail”, as everyone is different and not everyone completes the training in the same amount of time.
