Deafblindness Awareness

Deafblindness – combined sight and hearing loss – affects hundreds of thousands of people in the UK, many of them older people whose sight and hearing are both fading. This course explains what deafblindness is, its causes and signs, the right to a specialist assessment, and practical ways to communicate with and support a deafblind person.
