Get spelling, get sponsored

Sign your school up to the NDCS Fingerspellathon. You can learn to fingerspell and help us raise thousands of pounds which will help us support deaf children and their families.

Fingerspellathon month is October but you can organise one at any time of the year. Register your school now and get access to all of our free resources and materials.

Fingerspellathon is a sponsored spelling event for schools in aid of NDCS. Not only is it a fantastic interactive lesson for pupils, it is also a creative fundraising event.

• Fingerspellathon is a great way for your pupils to interact with one another and learn a useful new skill – BSL (British Sign Language).
• To raise funds for NDCS. Just £100 will allow a deaf child to borrow and test radio aids and other equipment and assess them in the comfort of their own home.
• Fingerspellathon educates pupils about childhood deafness and can help them understand some of the challenges deaf children face.

Registering now will mean that you will have full access to our free downloadable resources which include;

• Fundraising tips
• Event planning advice
• PowerPoint presentation for your assembly
• Fingerspelling word lists
• Sponsorship forms 
• Media pack

and lots, lots more!
