Are you a Deaf or hard of hearing carer?
Do you regularly look after someone who needs support?
Do you do this for free? (You do not get paid for giving this support)
If all three answers are YES, you are a Deaf carer, and this information is for you.
RAD received funding from the Department of Health to develop this information for Deaf and hard of hearing carers. RAD runs specialist Deaf carers projects in Essex and Kent. Thanks to support from these county councils, we have learnt a lot about the needs of Deaf and hard of hearing carers and we are passing this experience on to you.
All the information is signed in BSL with subtitles and available on the following web pages. It is also available as a written information pack with a DVD.
