Deafblind UK Advisory Group - Your Voice, Your Experience, Your Future

Living with deafblindness brings unique experiences and challenges that only those who share this journey truly understand. The Deafblind UK Advisory Group is made up of members who work together with the charity's staff to make sure that the services they provide reflect the needs and experiences of people who are deafblind.

Membership is open to anyone living with dual sensory loss, and the intention is for the group to reflect the full diversity of the deafblind community - different ages, backgrounds, and abilities. The group will meet mostly online, with occasional opportunities to meet in person. Members will also have the chance to join other groups focusing on specific interests. If you’d like to join the Advisory Group or find out more, please get in touch via email at advisory@deafblind.org.uk or by phone or text by contacting the Deafblind UK Helpline on 0800 132320 - just let the team know you’re interested in the Advisory Group.
