“Becoming more aware of the barriers that d/Deaf people face is essential and we believe that the smallest changes can make the biggest difference to the lives of people with hearing loss.”

Why you should choose MSDP as your Deaf Awareness training provider…
By choosing MSDP, you are showing your commitment to equality for all D/deaf people as well as supporting a local charity with a majority Deaf staff team. Our Deaf centre is home to one of the largest Deaf social clubs in the UK and we support some of the most isolated and vulnerable Deaf and Deaf-blind people in Merseyside. Income generated from this e-learning package will help our charity to support more Deaf people and enables us to achieve our charitable objectives to break down the barriers and inequalities people with hearing loss experience every day.
