Whether at home or work, listening aid equipment will help keep you in touch. Hearing aid maintenance New batteries, and routine cleaning and re-tubing of your NHS aids at a clinic near you. This service is supported by the Hearing Services department of Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Communications support BSL interpreting is so much more than simply translating one language to another and the communications support goes both ways, for the deaf person and the hearing professional. Deaf awareness training Award-winning training for businesses to understand deafness better. We guarantee it will transform the way you communicate with your customers and/or clients. "Colleagues say it has given them an excellent insight into what life is like for people they know who are deaf or hard of hearing, and that this will change how they care for - and work with - people with hearing loss."

It all starts with our two dedicated clubs, CDCC for the under 8's, and GDYZ for older children going through to young adults. Hearing siblings and friends are welcome as well. Information, advocacy and employment GDA is the only organisation in Gloucestershire able to offer support across the board for Deaf sign language users. That includes help with letter writing, making phone calls and even finding a job. In 2015, GDA was awarded 'Best Social Enterprise' at the Gloucestershire Business Show for our work around deaf employment. Community activities At GDA we pride ourselves on our strong community spirit. Whether you, or someone you know, was born deaf or has become deaf over time through age or illness, we host regular social activities from lipreading classes, hard of hearing clubs, to Deaf lunch club and our Friendship Circle.
