Provider Type: | National Service |
Service Description: | DeafHope is a specialist service for Deaf adults and children who have experienced abuse.
We are the only domestic abuse service in the UK that communicates with Deaf people directly, using a variety of communication methods, predominantly British Sign Language (BSL).
Communicating in sign language means we are able to offer Deaf people the support and advice they need, in a language they can understand.
We give Deaf people the tools to rebuild their lives and regain their confidence. Support can include one-to one advice from our qualified Deaf IDVAs (Independent Domestic Violence Advocates) and our Children & Families Worker.
Young DeafHope offers prevention workshops in schools, colleges and youth clubs to young Deaf people aged 11-25. Topics covered include healthy relationships, sexting, cyber bullying, female genital mutilation, honour-based violence and much more.
We also offer one-to one support for Deaf children who have witnessed or experienced domestic abuse within the home. |
