Sixth form student Lucy Whiting has been given a welcome boost by a translation company.

Lucy, 17, is spending a year in Ghana teaching arts, English and music.

Although the official language in Ghana is English, the most widely spoken language is Twi.

Yorkshire interpreting organisation EITI has said it will provide her with a list of phrases.

The firm has also said the English and art student, from Boothferry Sixth Form in west Hull, can call at any time during her stay in Ghana.

She said: "Many of the children will speak English, but some will not and this will be a great help."
