Story

2point0 Events are hosting a 1920s style Silent Movie Night which aims to raise money and awareness for Chester’s Deafness Support Network (DSN).

DSN are a Cheshire based registered charity who have been delivering services for D/deaf* people and their families in Cheshire and the surrounding areas for 39 years. The money which is raised from this event will go directly into DSN’s research project, ‘Deafness and Dementia.’ DSN aims to establish links between deafness and cognitive decline, to discover if it is able to be prevented and/or treated.

Gill Reeder, Operations Manager at DSN, said: "We're thrilled that 2point0 Events have chosen to support DSN with such an innovative event. The team has put a great deal of thought into it to ensure it is deaf-friendly and raises awareness about what DSN stands for."

Michaella Brannan, the 2point0 events Project Manager, commented saying “2point0 Events would like to thank Chester and the local community for the continued support and positive feedback received whilst planning this event in aid of a local charity, the Deafness Support Network. We look forward to hosting this unique event & providing guests to an entertaining evening while also raising money for a worthwhile cause.”

All of us at Deafness Support Network share a vision to provide a range of services that are fair and personalised, and that help give D/deaf people equal access to opportunities and services. Our objective is to provide the best choice and quality of services we can, as efficiently as we can, for as many people as possible, within the resources available to us. To do this our priorities are to work hard to understand and meet the needs of the people and families that we work with, helping them make the most of the opportunities available to them. We encourage everyone involved and connected with our work to take an active part in developing and providing our services while also respecting people’s different needs equally. We celebrate the culture, talents and aspirations of all D/deaf people and we make sure they are properly reflected in the way we develop our services. DSN continues to challenge and, when necessary, change the public perception of De/deafness. Our approach and ambition is to keep improving and increasing our services so that we can improve the quality of life of everyone that needs us. With this approach we will develop an provide services that can best meet the needs of our clients now and in the future.
