From the 28th June to the 4th July 2010 is Deaf Awareness Week.

Nearly 15% of our population have some form of deafness.

The theme for this year is ‘Look at Me’, which seeks to help hearing people understand the different forms of communication needed for different forms of deafness.

Whether deaf, deafened, deafblind or hard of hearing, will determine whether children use sign language or lip reading throughout their lives.

The Deaf Awareness Week web site has lists of organisations who use good practice for deaf people. There is a diary of events for the week, as well as leaflets that can downloaded from this page.
