Geocache Description:

A five-stage multi with a deaf angle, although hearing people ought to be able to solve it. The first stage is a micro, but the others are all smallish containers with swaps. A "Cache-Widow" keyring and FTF badge for the First To Find.

This is a five-point multi from start to end. While the given coordinates are for the Exeter Royal Academy for Deaf Education, the first clue and first point of five can be found at the following coordinates. Please do not enter the Deaf Academy.
