Overview

You Can Do It!, The FYD Story is set as a biography of Morag Rosie MBE and her involvement in the deaf charity known to thousands as FYD. It begins with the influence of Morag's parents and leads through to the moment that she met the founder of Freinds for Young Deaf, Denis Uttley. It is a very honest and endearing account of the triumphs and tribulations of running a charity for children and young people with moments that deal with conflicts in the workplace and challenges of keeping charities afloat. Everybody with an interest in the management of charities and the realisation of personal dreams will want to read this thoroughly-researched analysis, brought to life with testimonails from staff, volunteers and adults who were the children and young people who benefitted from what FYD had to offer. It is also able to demonstrate the importance of teaching 'soft skills' and leadership skills to young people, and it can validate the impact of this because FYD has left a international legacy spanning 15 years since it ceased operating in its original format. Baroness Floella Benjamin CBE, explains: Morag's book is unique, It's a deaf mother's story, about her determination to create a better world for her own family and for the thousands of deaf and hearing children and young people who were fortunate enough to encounter this wonderful woman.
