Want to make Christmas more deaf inclusive? 🎄

Christmas is a time for connection and celebration. But for people who are deaf or have hearing loss, festive gatherings can sometimes feel isolating – especially when communication becomes difficult in noisy or fast-paced environments.

Signalise is a co-op - but what does that mean?

Co-ops are democratic businesses, run by and for their members. They have seven 'principles', including Open and Voluntary Membership, and Concern for Community, that guide everything they do.

Why did we create Signalise? Why do we think Deaf people and Communication Professionals should be part of this business?

For too long, Deaf people and interpreters have had no control over how interpreting support has happened. And if a system isn't built by us, it isn't built for us.

The findings of the Kingdon Review are a stark wake-up call for the NHS audiology services.

Too many children are slipping through the cracks at a time when early diagnosis is absolutely critical for language learning. That means we must support our NHS services to act swiftly.
