SUPPORTING DEAF CHILDREN

AND THEIR FAMILIES

IN DORSET

Welcome to the Dorset Deaf Children's Society website. We are a registered charity who organise events and activities to enable children and young people with a hearing loss, parents and families  to meet each other and share their experiences and also have some fun! 


We provide grants and equipment for children with a hearing loss and their families and also provide information to help families make informed choices for their children's education and welfare.  

 

Membership is free for all families with a child or young person with a hearing loss living in Dorset or for supporters of children and young people with a hearing loss and their families living in Dorset.
