Harvey is an outgoing and chatty young man, but this masks a lack of basic numeracy and literacy. We were delighted when he joined the Numbers in Everyday Life course.

Tutor Samantha Dakin said:
“I thought Harvey would struggle but he surpassed all my expectations. He was soon counting, writing, matching numbers, and telling the time. To the surprise of his mother, he even recognised the time on their clock at home.”

“Learning about numbers was quite hard. I remember telling the time and drawing the hands on clocks. I love coming to Flower Pod and talking to people about sport, trains and beer. My favourite job is watering. I’ve learned how to look aft er tomato plants and now I have some at home.” - Harvey
