Mugged

This series was originally designed for adults with learning disibilities, but is useful for anyone with communication difficulties.

Living independently means you can do things you want to do like going to the shops, parks, films and coffee bars.

None of us should be scared when going out and about in the community, but we should be aware that bad things can happen.

Young men should be particularly on their guard as they are most at risk of being mugged.

This story is about a young man called Charlie who is attacked in the street.

The book shows how Charlie is helped by speedy police action, victim support and back-up from friends, family members and supporters.

The good advice is for everyone and includes suggestions for role-playing different responses to unwelcome approaches from strangers.
