Are you a Sign Language user caring for someone with Dementia?

BDA Northern Ireland want people to share their experiences if they fall under any of the three categories below:

  • Deaf carers of a Deaf person with Dementia
  • Deaf carer of a hearing person with Dementia
  • Hearing carer of a Deaf person with Dementia

Our Access & Inclusion (Dementia) Officer would like to chat with you about your experiences in order to participate in a pilot project focusing on supporting carers and people with Dementia.

If you would like to get in touch, please contact:
