DEAF and hearing impaired young people from Coventry and Warwickshire have graduated with honours from a course designed to hone their skills behind the wheel.

They turned up at Coventry Transport Museum to collect gold awards after completing a course financed by the European Social Fund.

The Coventry-based Heart of England Community Foundation helped secure European cash totalling £10,000 to run the 25-hour road user awareness course being operated by the Motorvate UK project.

Among those awarded a certificate was 17-year-old Natasha Kelly, of Spinney Hill, Warwick, who has now applied for her provisional driving licence.

She said: "I like driving. I enjoyed the course because it was fun, and it was nice to meet other people. I am more confident now."
