The charity has partnered with QAC Sight Village, gathering the sector

Charity Deafblind UK has sponsored the QAC Sight Village 2023 events, which aim to gather the sight loss and hearing loss sector, with the first event in Wales on April 18.

Deafblind UK CEO Nikki Morris said: ‘We know this will provide a huge opportunity for people with both visual and hearing impairment. Having information and equipment for sight loss and hearing loss all under one roof makes these events truly unique and a welcome addition to these already fantastic exhibitions.’

Bev Jessop, principal and chief executive, added that they were excited about the partnership: ‘We look forward to welcoming deafblind service users, professional services and providers to these premier national events. We share the same values, particularly in ensuring accessibility products and services help towards achieving individual social and independence goals for the VI and deaf-blind community.’
