We’d Love to Hear From You!

The Facebook group is a place where anyone is welcome to ask deaf-related questions, offer advice or recommendations to others, and arrange individual meet-ups/catch-ups.

Our events are for children with all levels of deafness and their families.

If you’d like to join us on any of our outings, please email hellonddcs@gmail.com to be added to our mailing list.
