@hccath From our experience - it tends to be both hearing and deaf led organisations. There is a need for a specific contract monitoring role to measure performance and ensure compliance and that data can be used against agencies, especially when they apply for a contract renewal.

The British Deaf Association's own statistics are out of date and not even externally audited as reliable. Data is a crucial piece of tool in creating an effective case / study. Good luck.

Travelling by train? Remember you can access a BSL interpreter free of charge in many of Network Rail's stations including: - Glasgow Central - London Bridge - London Victoria - London Paddington - London Waterloo Get platform information and help with any queries in #BSL.

Would it be fair to say that BSL registered translators appear to be substituted by BSL registered interpreters hired by companies of all size? If so why? Is it down to cost or availability? Your views would be greatly appreciated #translator #interpreter #BSL

Hello! I'm Kate, Kate Rowley. I'm Patrick, Patrick Rosenburg. We are researchers DCAL & we're interested in research language comprehension in deaf children, particularly BSL comp. skills & how this relates to English reading skills. We need 300 deaf kids aged 4-18.

Although not in BSL but in captions, it is a great way to explain the true meaning of deaf perspectives. youtu.be/IBcoSnlxoCw

In times of crisis, we always contact the national association of deaf people immediately. We work with them to support all deaf people's equality and human rights. From access to services to safety to equality to helping people in times of crisis, we are there to provide support

SarahCassandro Unsurprisingly the data or research on the impact of CI are virtually non-existent. The medical model needs to be replaced with social model and also eradicate audism for good.

Thanks for having us. I was honoured to have the opportunity to share our insights and help spread awareness about the importance of mental health support for the deaf community. We explored various therapeutic approaches and the reasons why seeking therapeutic support
