Deaf Awareness Week is soon approaching: May 5th-11th May and Deafness Resource Centre are offering a FREE 2 hour Deaf Awareness Training course at Halton Sensory Service.
The training provides practical skills for working with D/deaf people, including how to communicate clearly, use visual cues effectively, and avoid common misunderstandings.
It also covers the importance of effective communication strategies—such as using plain English, maintaining eye contact, and being mindful of background noise.
