If you or someone you love often feels left out around the dinner table due to hearing loss the @RNID have developed a game to play this Christmas which aims to start the conversation about #deafawareness at dinner time, available for donations above £5 https://t.co/QHaJ6oJHAC

We asked deaf people and those with hearing loss and tinnitus what friends and family can do to make communication easier at Christmas time, here is a poster sharing their tips, please download and share https://t.co/JtDqtre6BO

A really informative session today from @RNID about #HearingLoss 12 million people suffer from hearing loss in the UK. Remember if someone asks you to lower your face mask it may be in order to lip-read #inclusion #InternationalDayofPersonswithDisabilities

"When my tinnitus started I would be ironing my shirt for work in the morning in floods of tears. Through hard work, I’ve found ways to cope. If you’re reading this and you’re struggling with tinnitus - please reach out for help. No one has to do this alone." - Rich

Someone dressed a Pomeranian dog up as Paddington Bear and now the world seems a slightly better place to be in than it did yesterday...

Everything always (eventually) comes back to Star Wars. Thanks for the share, @rnid_uk have you seen this?

[Andy Winter 💙 @winter7t8]

Nice thread about inclusivity and tolerance. Yes it’s another @starwars tweet from your resident nerd but the social commentary on display in this show is artfully done and should be commended.
I wonder if I can get this on the uni reading lists 🧐 @Alison_Winter_ ICYMI

[Alison Winter @Alison_Winter_]

Thank you all for supporting Evie and inturn our charity, efforts like these truly help us to make life more inclusive for deaf people and those with hearing loss. You're a star @justEvieC thank you for all of your efforts. x

Here's why...

Having seen my father become more withdrawn from taking part in social activities due to his hearing & tinnitus, I can attest that dinner table syndrome is a thing, and it is the responsibility of all of us to practice proper deaf awareness.

What are you up to this Halloween? Not much? Why not give this a crack, can you stay silent for 24 hours? Can you learn some #BSL to communicate instead? If you're up to the challenge, sign up here! Spooky fancy dress compulsory obvs ;)
