This is a story about what can happen when you do not keep yourself clean. It helps to help explain the importance of personal hygiene to people with learning disabilities.

 

George works hard in a smelly job. He likes being with people and does not understand why they seem to avoid him.  We follow George's daily life - at home, at work, on the bus and in the pub. 

 

George's life changes when he learns to keep clean and dress more smartly.
