From the beginning of April, a limit will be placed on the amount of funding deaf people can receive from the government's long running Access to Work scheme. Clive Mason investigates the government's reasons for imposing the cap and how it will affect deaf people in the workplace.\n\nWe also meet a deaf man who turned his own life into an innovative one man show for deaf and hearing audiences. And in our news round-up with Seb and Lynn, we are reporting on a review of Personal Independence Payments and new funding for deaf footballers.
