Deaf Awareness week

Deaf Awareness Week

Silent Sounds will be hosting a number of events for Deaf Awareness Week , which this year will be from Monday 28th June to Friday 2nd July. Most of these events will be sited at specific locations where we can talk to both the general public, and also to deaf people and to people with connections in the deaf community.

The general message behind these events will be to 'Look At Me'
The theme aims to improve understanding of the different types of deafness by highlighting the many different methods of communication used by deaf, deafened, deafblind and hard of hearing people, such as sign language and lipreading.

If you have any ideas for additional events, or for charity promotions, please do get in touch with us via our website www.silent-sounds.co.uk

The venues for our events will be announced as soon as possible via our blog, and through other media.
