This was a really inspirational video to watch.
Being an OU student myself - I find it motivates me more to do my very best.
There's so many people out there who don't want to better themselves or don't even want to.
They should watch the video of this remarkable lady and see how much she pushed herself to learn. :)

It takes an extra special student with these disabilities to succeed, well done to her and those others that keep going!

Hi Susan
Thanks for subscribing to my video channel at RSC North and East. I wonder if it would be possible to get your original video/footage so I could upload it to the RSC Channel.

Thanks

Craig

I thought this was a really interesting video and I enjoyed watching it. I may be interested in being a reader myself, although I would have to do it during my 'free' period between my courses each winter. I am not sure though whether I have sufficient clarity of voice. Is there a sort of 'audition' to find out whether one is suitable or not?

I would be interested in being a volunteer reader. I love reading and if it would helpd someone, then that's even better.

Many thanks for the offer. If you phone The Open University and explain that you would like to be a reader, they will forward you to the correct department.
