Time line of key milestones for Deaflink
The conference in 2002 helped us identify the foundation of Deaflink, what its purpose is and our aims:
- Improve access to employment, education, health, leisure and social opportunities for all D/deaf, Deafblind and Hard of Hearing people in Newcastle and the North East
- To raise awareness of the needs of these excluded groups to statutory and voluntary/private organisations and agencies
- To act as a consultative group to services offering training support and advocacy
