Royal Association for Deaf people

Welcome to Royal Association for Deaf people (RAD)

RAD is a Deaf led organisation. We promote the welfare and interests of Deaf people. We believe Deaf people should receive the same access and opportunities as hearing people. We mainly support Deaf people whose first or preferred language is British Sign Language (BSL) but also work with people with all forms of deafness including those who are hard of hearing, deafened, or deafblind. Our services cover the following areas:

Legal, Advocacy and Employment Services

We support Deaf people to achieve independence and help them with understanding rights and finances. We provide employment and legal advice, and specialist support for Deaf people from black and ethnic minority communities.

Children, Families and Youth Service

We provide activities and support groups for families with parents and/or children who are deaf or hard or hearing. We also run activities which give deaf teenagers skills and confidence for adulthood.

Deaf Community Development

By working with Deaf clubs and other self-help groups, we provide Deaf people with places to meet as well as social and leisure activities.

Interpreting

Our professional, competitively priced service provides high quality British Sign Language/English Interpreters, Deafblind Interpreters, Lipspeakers, Note-takers and Speech to Text Reporters.

We also provide an emergency service that is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Social Care

We provide specialist support for Deaf people who are old, or have learning disabilities and/or mental health challenges… and the people who care for them.

Please visit the site again soon, for the latest news from RAD. Thank you.
