We offer bespoke Deaf Awareness training at your place of work, at an agreed venue, or online.

The sessions include an overview of D/deaf culture and history, examples of barriers and discrimination that D/deaf and Hard of Hearing people face everyday, plus an introduction to some basic conversational BSL signs, fingerspelling, and numbers. The sessions can be tailored to cover key signs in your industry or sector or area of intererst.
