0:01:23 > 0:01:25- We have to use this now.

0:01:26 > 0:01:30- We have to take care of safety, - so we need goggles.

0:01:59 > 0:02:02- I've been here since 2000.

0:02:02 > 0:02:06- I had to learn woodwork, - or work in a cafe.

0:02:07 > 0:02:11- I wasn't comfortable - working in a cafe.

0:02:13 > 0:02:18- I build picnic tables, bird tables, - bird boxes, bug boxes...

0:02:18 > 0:02:20- ..all kinds of things.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22- Sometimes, people make requests.

0:02:23 > 0:02:27- We make longer picnic tables - for people in wheelchairs.

0:02:28 > 0:02:31- Arwyn Williams - works closely with James.

0:02:31 > 0:02:35- He has seen James develop a lot - since starting work.

0:02:43 > 0:02:44- He was shy.

0:02:46 > 0:02:51- He only did a few simple things - with ordinary hand tools.

0:02:53 > 0:02:56- But he's come along excellently.

0:02:56 > 0:03:00- He does a lot of work on his own, - without any help.

0:03:01 > 0:03:02- His confidence has grown.

0:03:04 > 0:03:08- He often comes to me and says, - "I've had a good idea."

0:03:08 > 0:03:11- He'll bring a sketch, - which we try to develop.

0:03:11 > 0:03:15- We work out - how it could be produced and sold.

0:03:15 > 0:03:17- So you sell items.

0:03:17 > 0:03:19- So you sell items.- - Yes. They go very well.

0:03:19 > 0:03:23- If an item is bought, - it boosts James's confidence.

0:03:23 > 0:03:27- It does. He's proud, thinking, - "It was my idea and I made it."

0:03:28 > 0:03:29- It's quite simple.

0:03:30 > 0:03:32- This is the last stage.

0:03:33 > 0:03:34- OK.

0:03:35 > 0:03:37- We want to make more now.

0:03:38 > 0:03:40- Thanks to Menter Fachwen...

0:03:44 > 0:03:47- He had problems - trusting people in the past.

0:03:48 > 0:03:52- I didn't do anything, - before Menter Fachwen.

0:03:52 > 0:03:55- I was very nervous.

0:03:55 > 0:03:57- I felt isolated.

0:03:57 > 0:04:03- I had no friends at all, but with - Menter, I've made loads of friends.

0:04:03 > 0:04:06- I'm very happy now...

0:04:07 > 0:04:11- ..with the woodwork - and with the people who help me.

0:04:11 > 0:04:14- I'm very grateful - to Menter Fachwen.

0:04:14 > 0:04:18- I have no idea - what I'd do now, without them.

0:04:19 > 0:04:21- James's confidence - has grown so much...

0:04:22 > 0:04:27- ..that he invites children - with disabilities to the workshop...

0:04:27 > 0:04:28- ..for work experience.

0:04:29 > 0:04:32- Children from Ysgol Pendalar - come here.

0:04:32 > 0:04:34- I teach them woodwork.

0:04:35 > 0:04:37- They enjoy it too.

0:04:37 > 0:04:42- They're the same as I was, - feeling isolated and very shy.

0:04:43 > 0:04:47- I encourage them to grow - and be more confident...

0:04:48 > 0:04:50- ..as Menter did with me.

0:04:50 > 0:04:55- As well as the workshop, - there's a display area outdoors.

0:04:56 > 0:05:00- James wanted to show me - something very special.

0:05:12 > 0:05:15- I had the idea - when I went to Chester.

0:05:15 > 0:05:19- In the station, - I saw a planter, a train planter.

0:05:20 > 0:05:23- I thought it would be - a good idea to make one.

0:05:31 > 0:05:33- This is the third.

0:05:33 > 0:05:36- I hope it will go, - so I can make a new one.

0:05:37 > 0:05:40- How long did it take you - to construct it?

0:05:40 > 0:05:42- At first, it took a week.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46- I had to make templates - for the next one.

0:05:46 > 0:05:50- Now, everything is ready. - It only takes three days.

0:05:50 > 0:05:53- It looks marvellous.

0:05:54 > 0:05:57- I'm proud of what I've accomplished - with Menter.

0:05:58 > 0:05:59- Great.

0:07:32 > 0:07:37- Then their character - and enthusiasm comes out.

0:07:37 > 0:07:42- It's a pleasure to see people - develop and enjoy themselves.

0:07:44 > 0:07:48- It's clear that Menter Fachwen - had a positive effect on James.

0:07:48 > 0:07:53- I wanted to learn what he was like - before working with them.

0:07:54 > 0:07:57- I'm going to Felinheli - to talk to his mother.

0:08:20 > 0:08:23- He went to school in the morning.

0:08:24 > 0:08:28- When he came home, - he didn't have much to say.

0:08:29 > 0:08:30- He was downhearted.

0:08:30 > 0:08:32- I could see it in his face.

0:08:32 > 0:08:36- I asked what was wrong. - He said, "Nothing."

0:08:36 > 0:08:40- He went to his room - and shut the door.

0:08:42 > 0:08:43- Nothing more.

0:08:43 > 0:08:47- Was the work too difficult, - or was it the children?

0:08:47 > 0:08:49- The bullying started too.

0:08:50 > 0:08:52- And when he had homework...

0:08:52 > 0:08:54- ..he couldn't do it.

0:08:57 > 0:09:03- He was assessed a year and a half - before starting secondary school.

0:09:04 > 0:09:07- That was when they said - he had special needs.

0:09:08 > 0:09:10- But there was no name for it.

0:09:10 > 0:09:12- Just learning disability.

0:09:12 > 0:09:13- Just learning disability.- - Yes.

0:09:13 > 0:09:16- Was he slightly behind - the other children?

0:09:17 > 0:09:19- Yes, five or six years behind.

0:09:20 > 0:09:24- Did you receive enough support - from the school?

0:09:24 > 0:09:29- They said they did, but I didn't - feel James had enough support.

0:09:29 > 0:09:31- He was in a smaller group.

0:09:31 > 0:09:35- James needed one-to-one attention. - He didn't get it.

0:09:35 > 0:09:40- They said there was nothing wrong - with James, but there was.

0:09:40 > 0:09:43- James was left behind.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46- Was it hard for him to make friends?

0:09:46 > 0:09:47- Was it hard for him to make friends?- - Yes, very hard.

0:09:47 > 0:09:53- Because James was different, - he didn't have many friends at all.

0:10:00 > 0:10:02- He wants to forget them.- - Yes, he wants to forget them.

0:10:03 > 0:10:06- It was a very sad time here.

0:10:06 > 0:10:09- James's father - worked away from home.

0:10:09 > 0:10:13- So everything fell on me - to keep things going.

0:10:14 > 0:10:16- I tried my best for him.

0:10:16 > 0:10:22- Should disabled people - go to mainstream schools...

0:10:22 > 0:10:25- ..or is it sometimes a mistake?

0:10:25 > 0:10:28- It's not a mistake, - but in James's day, it was.

0:10:29 > 0:10:31- It wasn't right for James.

0:10:31 > 0:10:35- It might be right - for another person.

0:10:35 > 0:10:37- But at that time, no.

0:10:38 > 0:10:38- .

0:12:56 > 0:12:59- We get a lot out of the group.

0:12:59 > 0:13:01- Individuals have their say...

0:13:01 > 0:13:07- ..and they speak on behalf - of other self-advocacy groups.

0:13:07 > 0:13:11- Do you feel confident to go - on your own, or do you want company?

0:13:11 > 0:13:13- I'm confident on my own.

0:13:13 > 0:13:16- Can you go on a narrow road - on your own...

0:13:16 > 0:13:18- ..without someone to help?

0:13:33 > 0:13:37- Then, as chair, - he shared the information...

0:13:37 > 0:13:40- ..which would then - be passed on to the police.

0:13:43 > 0:13:44- It's important.

0:13:45 > 0:13:49- I find out - what other people think...

0:13:49 > 0:13:53- ..what their worries are, - and hear their opinions.

0:14:21 > 0:14:23- He said, "No, I don't want to."

0:14:24 > 0:14:27- In the end, - I found out about the bully.

0:14:28 > 0:14:31- He told James, - "You're good for nothing.

0:14:31 > 0:14:33- "Who are you? Nobody."

0:14:36 > 0:14:39- How were the other children - in school with you?

0:14:40 > 0:14:43- It's difficult for me to say.

0:14:44 > 0:14:46- Some of them were friends.

0:14:47 > 0:14:49- Some of them weren't.

0:14:51 > 0:14:53- They picked on me a lot.

0:14:53 > 0:14:55- They could change.

0:14:56 > 0:15:00- James's relationship - with his sister is very close.

0:15:00 > 0:15:05- Sharon was only 15 when James - had the difficult times at school.

0:15:06 > 0:15:09- She remembers - seeing a great change in him.

0:15:14 > 0:15:15- I saw that James...

0:15:20 > 0:15:22- He wouldn't go out of the door.

0:15:22 > 0:15:23- He screamed.

0:15:23 > 0:15:25- It was sad to see him like that.

0:15:26 > 0:15:29- One day, he had the accident.

0:15:30 > 0:15:32- That was the final straw.

0:15:33 > 0:15:35- I remember it very clearly.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38- School had finished.

0:15:38 > 0:15:41- The boy in front of me - opened the door.

0:15:43 > 0:15:45- He slammed the door on me.

0:15:45 > 0:15:47- I tried to stop it with my hand.

0:15:47 > 0:15:49- The glass shattered.

0:15:50 > 0:15:52- I had to have stitches.

0:15:54 > 0:15:57- This part of my arm - was covered in blood.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00- The teacher helped me...

0:16:01 > 0:16:03- ..and put a tea towel on it.

0:16:04 > 0:16:07- In two minutes, - it was covered in blood.

0:16:08 > 0:16:10- Then the ambulance came.

0:16:10 > 0:16:14- That was a big blow - to my confidence.

0:16:16 > 0:16:19- When I was 15, - I had a tough time too.

0:16:20 > 0:16:23- I thought my friends - were my friends.

0:16:23 > 0:16:25- Unfortunately, they weren't.

0:16:26 > 0:16:28- All sorts of things happened.

0:16:28 > 0:16:30- They called me names.

0:16:33 > 0:16:35- A knife was thrown at me.

0:16:36 > 0:16:39- One day, - I was held up against a wall.

0:16:39 > 0:16:45- Sometimes, it was so difficult, - I didn't want to go to school.

0:16:45 > 0:16:47- In the end, I stuck it out...

0:16:47 > 0:16:50- ..carried on - and looked for new friends.

0:16:50 > 0:16:54- Was it difficult - for you to find new friends?

0:16:54 > 0:16:56- Yes, at first.

0:16:56 > 0:16:57- It was difficult.

0:16:57 > 0:17:01- I didn't know - who to believe and who not to.

0:17:02 > 0:17:06- Like when you have stitches...

0:17:06 > 0:17:08- ..it reminds you of what happened.

0:17:10 > 0:17:12- James was so unhappy at school...

0:17:12 > 0:17:18- ..his mother decided that the best - option for him was home education.

0:17:18 > 0:17:21- She knew I'd be taught.

0:17:22 > 0:17:25- There were no bullies at all.

0:17:26 > 0:17:28- I was happy with that.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32- The name of the woman - who taught me was Sheila.

0:17:33 > 0:17:35- She taught me a lot of things.

0:17:35 > 0:17:38- She taught me joined-up writing.

0:17:38 > 0:17:40- I couldn't do that at all.

0:17:40 > 0:17:44- She taught me to do that well - and to spell correctly.

0:17:44 > 0:17:48- I couldn't spell Caernarfon, - Bangor or Llandudno.

0:17:48 > 0:17:49- Now, I can.

0:17:50 > 0:17:53- With the experiences - your family had...

0:17:53 > 0:17:58- ..do you think schools, the - Education Department or teachers...

0:17:58 > 0:18:03- ..should help children be aware - that some people are different?

0:18:04 > 0:18:05- What should they do?

0:18:05 > 0:18:06- What should they do?- - Yes.

0:18:06 > 0:18:10- They should include - people who are different...

0:18:10 > 0:18:14- ..and not be afraid - of people who are different.

0:18:14 > 0:18:16- It's alright to be different.

0:18:16 > 0:18:21- At the end of the day, - not everyone is the same.

0:18:23 > 0:18:27- One of James's main hobbies - outside of work are trains.

0:18:27 > 0:18:31- He has constructed - a large track at home.

0:18:31 > 0:18:33- This is my pride and joy.

0:18:33 > 0:18:34- Wow!

0:18:37 > 0:18:38- Did you build all this?

0:18:38 > 0:18:39- Did you build all this?- - Yes.

0:18:39 > 0:18:41- It's still growing.

0:18:43 > 0:18:45- When did you start making it?

0:18:45 > 0:18:46- When did you start making it?- - Years ago.

0:18:49 > 0:18:51- I can light it up.

0:18:51 > 0:18:52- Right!

0:18:53 > 0:18:54- I'll put it on now.

0:18:54 > 0:18:55- I'll put it on now.- - Yes!

0:18:57 > 0:18:59- You've got lots of houses.

0:18:59 > 0:19:05- Yes. I had a lot - as Christmas gifts from my mother.

0:19:05 > 0:19:07- I have one that makes a noise.

0:19:07 > 0:19:10- TRAIN WHISTLE AND CHUFFING

0:19:13 > 0:19:14- Great.

0:19:19 > 0:19:21- What do you enjoy about them?

0:19:22 > 0:19:24- Seeing them run well...

0:19:26 > 0:19:29- ..and seeing the job I've done, - over a long time.

0:19:31 > 0:19:34- You have time to yourself, to relax.

0:19:34 > 0:19:36- I built them myself.

0:19:37 > 0:19:40- I'm quite proud that I made them.

0:19:43 > 0:19:47- As well as trains, James - loves driving his father's tractor.

0:19:47 > 0:19:51- Unfortunately, - as well as a learning disability...

0:19:51 > 0:19:54- ..James has epileptic seizures.

0:19:54 > 0:19:57- He'd love to learn to drive.

0:19:57 > 0:19:59- But people with epilepsy...

0:19:59 > 0:20:03- ..can't drive without being - seizure-free for a year.

0:20:04 > 0:20:08- I help Dad - clean the drive with the tractor.

0:20:08 > 0:20:14- I take Mam's old car up and down - the drive. That's all I can do.

0:20:14 > 0:20:17- I'm quite happy doing that...

0:20:19 > 0:20:21- ..until I can learn.

0:20:23 > 0:20:27- I want the all-clear - from the doctor first.

0:20:29 > 0:20:31- Once I get that...

0:20:31 > 0:20:33- ..I can start to drive.

0:20:34 > 0:20:37- I hope you'll get good news soon.

0:20:38 > 0:20:41- That's my hope, every year.

0:20:42 > 0:20:44- But I know it takes time.

0:20:45 > 0:20:48- I wouldn't want - to have an accident...

0:20:48 > 0:20:50- ..if I was at the wheel.

0:20:50 > 0:20:53- I understand what the problem is.

0:21:03 > 0:21:08- Talking to James made me realize - how much I take the car for granted.

0:21:08 > 0:21:11- Independence is priceless.

0:21:11 > 0:21:13- I couldn't do half what I do...

0:21:13 > 0:21:17- ..if I didn't have - a specially-adapted car.

0:21:17 > 0:21:20- It's still James's dream - to learn to drive.

0:21:21 > 0:21:24- He depends on lifts to go places.

0:21:24 > 0:21:28- I'm going to pick him up - so we can go for a game of golf.

0:21:29 > 0:21:32- Hi, James. Are you ready - for a game of golf?

0:21:33 > 0:21:33- Yes.

0:21:33 > 0:21:34- Yes.- - Off we go!

0:21:59 > 0:22:00- Thanks.

0:22:03 > 0:22:05- We'll start at number 1.

0:22:10 > 0:22:11- Is it there?

0:22:13 > 0:22:15- Oh!

0:22:16 > 0:22:17- LAUGHTER

0:22:20 > 0:22:21- Yes!

0:22:21 > 0:22:22- LAUGHTER

0:22:23 > 0:22:26- Someone owes you a pint now!

0:22:27 > 0:22:28- Oh!

0:22:29 > 0:22:30- Hang on!

0:22:30 > 0:22:31- Yes!

0:22:32 > 0:22:33- Two pints now!

0:22:33 > 0:22:34- Two pints!

0:22:34 > 0:22:38- Meeting James and his family - has been very enjoyable...

0:22:39 > 0:22:43- ..although it brought back - difficult memories for us both.

0:22:44 > 0:22:46- Bullying spoils lives forever.

0:22:47 > 0:22:51- But bullying children with - disabilities is especially cruel.

0:22:51 > 0:22:56- I was glad to see James's advocacy - work and how confident he is now.

0:22:56 > 0:22:57- LAUGHTER

0:22:58 > 0:23:01- This course - is tougher than it looks!

0:23:02 > 0:23:05- I'd like to see advocacy - in schools too...

0:23:05 > 0:23:10- ..so children can learn why - some of us are a little different.

0:23:10 > 0:23:12- But although we're different...

0:23:12 > 0:23:15- ..we have feelings - like everyone else.

0:23:15 > 0:23:20- We deserve the same respect - and the same fair play.
