Human rights are not privileges—they are fundamental entitlements that empower us to live with dignity, equality, and freedom. Yet, for the Deaf and Deafblind community, these rights are often compromised due to barriers in communication, access to services, and societal inclusion.
As a specialist support service provider for Deaf and Deafblind clients in our community, I am committed to breaking down these barriers. My work focuses on ensuring individuals have equal access to vital services, whether it’s healthcare, education, employment, or social care.
Through tailored support, I bridge the gap between clients and the world around them, empowering them to advocate for themselves and live fulfilling lives. This includes offering British Sign Language (BSL) interpreting, tactile communication for Deafblind clients, and guidance on navigating systems that often overlook their unique needs.
Why is my work important?
Access to Communication:
For many, information that seems readily available is inaccessible without sign language or specialised support. I make sure my clients are heard, understood, and informed.
Equality in Services:
Deaf and Deafblind individuals often face systemic discrimination, such as being excluded from decision-making processes about their own care. I work to eliminate these injustices.
Human Connection:
Beyond advocacy, my service fosters a sense of belonging and independence for people who often feel isolated by society’s lack of awareness.
This isn’t just about services—it’s about ensuring every person, regardless of ability, can enjoy their fundamental human rights.
Together, we can build a society that values inclusivity and celebrates the contributions of everyone. Let’s stand up for the rights of the Deaf and Deafblind community, because accessibility is a right, not a privilege.
