FREE Deaf Awareness Training

Cumbria-DeafVision as part of the NCI partnership have organised Deaf Awareness Training sessions which will take part throughout the county between September 2014 and March 2015.

This is a short introductory 2 hour course on deaf awareness at the end of which participants should:

 

• understand the range of hearing loss
• have a greater knowledge of the advantages and limitations of hearing aids
• demonstrate the use of tactics which improve communication with those who have a hearing loss - e.g. lip reading, fingerspelling and some basic signs

Numbers will be limited to 18 per session and are open to members of staff, volunteers and supporters.

To book a place or for further information please contact Sue Devlin:
