Deaf Action

Established in 1835, Deaf Action’s Vision is of an equal and better future for all deaf people. This includes those who are Deaf British Sign language (BSL) users, those who are hard of hearing, deafened and deafblind people.

•      Adult Learning

        Note-Takers, Deafblind Communicators)

•      Specialist equipment

•      Social work

•      Supported Living

•      Outreach / visiting support services

•      British Sign Language (BSL) and Deaf Awareness courses

•      Social and leisure activities
