Tell us your story

We'd like to hear about your experience of having a deaf child or growing up as a deaf person.

Sharing your personal story is an effective way of raising awareness of childhood deafness in the public eye, and showing the impact NDCS has on the lives of deaf children. This can help promote general understanding about the issues affecting deaf children, as well as motivate people to support the organisation.

We might want to use your story:

  • to illustrate a campaign;
  • for fundraising materials, such as letters and appeals;
  • in our publications;
  • on the NDCS website;
  • in newspaper and magazine stories.

If you share your story, we’ll contact you if we receive a request that you may be able to help with though you’ll always have the option to say no. We will never pass on your contact details without asking your permission first. 

If you’re able to support NDCS in this way, please fill out this short form.

If it’s more convenient, you can also email the details to: philippa.mcintyre@ndcs.org.uk.
