March Meeting | Deaf Hope

March 23, 2017 Balham WI 0 Comments


This month, we were very happy to welcome Deaf Hope domestic abuse services to speak to us. Deaf Hope is a part of the Sign Health charity and works exclusively with women in the deaf community who have experienced abuse. Abby let us know a bit about what Sign Health do on the broader scope. Lynn, with the help of her interpreter, shared with us the very shocking statistics about domestic violence and abuse relating to deaf women and the wonderful and varied programmes Deaf Hope offer to help women out of those situations and into situations where they can be healthy and flourish. We are very glad to know that Deaf Hope are working locally in the Borough of Wandsworth and many members were interested to support them in future.
