Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Iam raising money for deaf cancer support project. My older brother has been diagnosed with a rare cancer and he is profoundly deaf.we have struggled with communication and where we can get information that is in BSL. It such a scary time for him and unknown. The project is to make more information accessible to deaf and hard hearing going through a diagnosis and having a support group where they can communicate themselves. We want to bring awareness to the lack of accessibility for information and help for the deaf community who are going through or have been through a diagnosis of some kind.
