We are thrilled to announce that we have been awarded £49,900 by City Bridge Trust – the City of London Corporation’s charity funder, as one of the collaboration of funders under the Propel Explore programme.
We will be using this funding over 12 months towards a project to explore the systemic issues faced by the Deaf community in London, putting together a campaign plan.
This represents the beginning of the implementation of our 10-year strategy, an approach that sets out our priorities and targets for building a better world for Deaf people.
The draft Strategic Vision can be found here: bda.org.uk/strategic-vision
We are immensely grateful for City Bridge Trust’s recognition of the need to plan, in detail, the steps needed to end the harm resulting from over a century of oppression and unfair treatment of Deaf people and their language.
