Over 800,000 people are severely or profoundly deaf, and 87,000 rely on sign language as their primary form of communication. Let’s not create any barriers for those who feel isolated.

I cannot stress enough how important it is you watch this gorilla bathe-dancing to maniac.

Bumping this again as no one replied. Come on, Deaf UK Twitter and BSL interpreters. What is our experience? DM me if don't want to feedback publicly.
Is anyone else finding that DWP staff are hanging up on VRS interpreted calls? Or even call centre staff refusing to accept VRS video calls? Let me know as I plan to write to Liz Kendall and I wanted to know the true scale of this problem. Liz is local MP to @leicesterdeaf

The UN says the Govt is still failing to address its systemic violations of disabled people's rights.
Rather than act on the UN recommendations, Ministers still challenge them!
You can't convince disabled people that 14 years of Tory govt have been anything short of disastrous

Took a bunch of books to WH Smith’s book cycle and got a £10 gift card! It’s so worth doing if you have a bunch of books taking up space that you won’t read again

A quite staggering and offensive level of ignorance in this video clip.

Individuals working in companies often design products assuming certain things are acceptable.
Mickey Mouse and “vagina” in sign language do not mix. 🤦🏽♀️
This is not a heart, ma’am or sir.

In 1965 Essex shrank in size.
Nearly one million Essex people became Londoners.
Five new London boroughs were created becoming in effect Metropolitan Essex, which in turn replaced 11 former Essex boroughs.

The horse never wanted to take a picture with anyone! 😂
But the horse was only kind to one person...

Well done Tesla, recruiting 60 deaf employees - great initiative
At Tesla, everyone can have meaningful impact, no matter their background or disability.
To date, 60 deaf employees are part of the Giga Berlin team—a large portion being Ukrainians who fled the war.

6 months on and it happens again. Same club, same game, same rules and same abuse towards me because of my hearing. Asking if I can hear you? What’s that got to do with your game? I’m deaf and so what. @WestCheshireLge @HeswallFC_ @capevillafc res @GB_DeafFootball @FA

Tilly has nailed this! She is amazing. My heart breaks for all the families who can’t give that option to their child as they can’t afford to learn and teach their deaf child BSL. This must change. I will fight and fight for this! @GillianKeegan @david4wantage #communication
Tilly tells us three reasons why she learnt #BritishSignLanguage (BSL) for her deaf child.
Time is running out for you to fill out the @educationgovuk BSL GCSE consultation! The consultation closes this Friday, click the link to add your thoughts👇

There are 12 million people in the UK who are deaf or have hearing loss, so it’s important to #BeDeafAware and use captions on social media.
Check out these guides for creating, switching on and adjusting captions, and share with your friends and family: bit.ly/3UtHZem
