BDA Chair's message:

Hello this is Terry Riley - Chair of BDA.

The results from the recent elections for the new BDA board members has just been announced. The Chair and the existing Board would like to congratulate all of those that were successfully elected to the Board.

It really is a great honour to be a member of the BDA Board that has run for 126 years. It will be hard and the Deaf community is changing but the work will definitely be enjoyable and we promise that we will continue to support the BDA and the new Board. Well done!
