Deaf/deafened people

Our specialist team members understand the issues surrounding deafness. One of them is deaf and all of them can sign.

We can:

• give advice and information to deaf people and their carers
• help with worries
• loan specialist equipment to you
• help you get other services that the council provides.

There is a wide range of other local and national organisations that provide advice and support to deaf/deafened people.
