Deaf Awareness Week

Deaf Awareness Week

From Tuesday 2 May to Monday 8 May 2023, it's Deaf Awareness Week.

What is the aim of Deaf Awareness Week?

Each year, the week brings awareness to the isolation that deaf people can experience, whilst promoting social inclusion of those with hearing loss. The week also generates awareness of British Sign Language, spreading the form of communication to make society a more accessible place for people with hearing loss.
