Campaign toolkit
Do you have a great idea to make a change for deaf children? Or perhaps you want to take action to change the support your deaf child gets? Whatever you’re trying to achieve, we can support you to make it happen.
We've created this toolkit to give you the advice and tips you need to create change. Whether it's speaking to your child's school, engaging with your council or MP, or using your voice online, this toolkit will help you to campaign for change for your child – or all deaf children.
This toolkit was created for you, and we'd like your input to continue to make it better. If you want to share any campaigning tips, advice or stories, please get in touch at [email protected] – we'd love to hear from you.

Do you need communication support (eg captions or a BSL interpreter) for a campaign meeting or to meet with a decision-maker? Let us know and we can arrange (and pay for) this.
