Edinburgh
Deaf Action exists to support the diversity of deaf people, including deaf users
of British Sign Language (BSL), and those who are deafened, deafblind or hard of
hearing. Our work is geared towards empowering all deaf people to achieve their
potential and fully participate in society, with equality of rights, access and
opportunity. We are very proud to be a deaf-led organisation. Almost half of our
staff are deaf, and many more have grown up with deaf parents or siblings. We
truly understand the challenges deaf people face, and believe that our
collective experience allows us to honestly position ourselves as experts in
unlocking deaf people’s potential.
