This week marks Deafblind Awareness Week, and the 2026 campaign invites everyone to “see and hear” the experiences of individuals who are deafblind. This initiative aims to challenge misconceptions and promote the social model of disability. It provides an opportunity for all in the UK to learn about, celebrate, and advocate for the rights and inclusion of those living with dual sensory loss. Let’s use this week to educate ourselves and acknowledge the remarkable achievements of the deafblind community! 🌟
