Many ways to help deaf children

We are looking for enthusiastic grandparents, fathers and siblings of deaf children from the South-East to take part in an innovative two-year project set up by the National Deaf Children's Society (NDCS), and funded by the national lottery through Big Lottery Fund.

There are many ways to get involved in the All Together project, such as sharing your experiences of having a deaf child in your family, volunteering at a local event, or helping to create new resources that will give grandparents, fathers and siblings across England the support and encouragement they need to form a strong relationship with a deaf child.

If you are interested in participating, or to find out more, please call me on 020 7490 8656, or email me at valerie.copenhagen@ndcs.org.uk.
