Deaf Awareness Week 2 nd to 8 th May 2016

Common Purpose Common Purpose means everyone who meets or works with or knows a deaf person working together to make sure the deaf person can ACHIEVE THEIR POTENTIAL. The theme for this year’s Deaf Awareness Week is…

Golden Rule: Deaf people are NOT stupid! They just can’t hear, which means they don’t pick up information as quickly and easily.

Make sure you are facing the deaf person. Communicating with a deaf person

Don’t turn away while you’re speaking. Communicating with a deaf person

Speak clearly and normally – don’t shout! Communicating with a deaf person

Repeat yourself if you need to. Communicating with a deaf person

Don’t give up! Communicating with a deaf person

Never say “Oh, it doesn’t matter!” Communicating with a deaf person

Write it down or draw a picture. Communicating with a deaf person

Deaf people can do most things… except hear! Here are some examples of successful deaf or hard-of- hearing people…
