Quotes

Artists Statement: "The work ranges from political, decorative or nostalgic to surreal. I get a thought or an idea and then proceed to gather and use various images or items together and see where they lead me. I don't always know where I'm going when I begin.......but usually, in the end, the process evolves into a piece that seems to show the whole being greater than the sum of the parts."
"Equally, we can talk about the challenges we face when we need to provide instructions to the caller."
The national awareness campaign organised by the UKUK Council on Deafness for 2013 is "Get involved / Get aware!’.  As well as dressing for the occasion, fundraising activities included holding a brightly decorated cake sale and challenging family and friends to learn to fingerspell."
Julie Ryder, Director and Founder of HearFirst, said: "The bite-sized deaf awareness training sessions were organised to raise awareness of deafness and provide MP’s with the knowledge and skills to help them make real changes for people within their constituencies."
