Mobility

It’s the first day of sixth form, and Mike is looking forward to a bit of social mobility. He thinks he’s way better than the group of so-called 'loser' friends he’s somehow accrued, and aspires to higher things.

But for now, he’s stuck with powergeek Sonny and Dan, a lad who only communicates in put-downs, and he’s going to find it hard to shake them off: Mike, Sonny and Dan all take the mobility bus to school. Mike has cerebral palsy, Sonny uses a wheelchair, and Dan ‘Syndrome’ Simmons has Down’s Syndrome. So Mike, Sonny and Dan are trapped together – at least for the ride to school.
