27 June - 3 July 2021 is Deafblind Awareness Week..
Deaf blindness is far more common than many people realize... around 400,000 people are affected by sight and hearing loss in the UK. That’s enough to fill Wembley Stadium nearly five times!
It affects everyone differently, some might need to adjust the settings on their TV or turn up the volume on the phone, and others might need assistance dogs, canes and more formal care.
But for anyone affected, everyday activities can be difficult and time consuming. Imagine trying to book a doctor’s appointment, meet a friend for coffee, or even make dinner if you can’t see or hear very well.
To help raise awareness within the CSC The social committee thought that it would be a fantastic way to raise some money for this wonderful cause & also have a little fun. We are asking for a very small donation of £1 or whatever you can spare & we have also set up a little competition!
All you have to do is send in £1 and some pics of you wearing your odd or funkiest socks & you could be in with a chance of winning a Amazon Voucher!
