Our domestic abuse service is called DeafHope. It provides practical and emotional support to Deaf people who are experiencing domestic abuse, and to those who have survived it. The team help people to make choices and to stay safe.
Our workshops are organised by experienced and qualified Deaf staff, and delivered in British Sign Language. We work with Deaf women, educating them about abuse – what abuse is, the different types of abuse (physical, mental, emotional, financial, sexual) and how to cope in difficult situations.
What happens at our survivor workshops?
In a safe place, Deaf women can meet other Deaf women who have experienced domestic abuse
Our Deaf staff will explain, in BSL, what domestic abuse is, why it happens and what you can do to stay safe
We will explain how domestic abuse can make your children feel
We will give you advice about coping with abuse, how to be aware of controlling behaviour and how to feel more confident.
