What we do?


Co.deaf provides a range of specialist support services and advice to not only the Deaf community but also to people and organisations regarding Deaf issues.

 

We have developed a reputation for providing innovative, high quality services to meet the needs of the community that we serve.

 

By working in partnership with funders, clients and service providers we have become effective in pursuing our aim of providing high quality services for the Deaf and hard of hearing communities.

 

Our Development Officer actively look for new services and funding to create new initiatives.
