There is a crisis in the #Deafblind community in the UK. There is NO regulations for Communicator-guides which they use or try to use. Deafblind people have had enough and taken action.

Currently NO regulations for Deafblind Communicator-guides.
This is causing acute difficulties and vulnerability.
#Deafblind people have had enough and taking action to get organisations and bodies to rectify this.

#Deafblindness was recognised. by the UK government in 1989 as a distinct disability (not deaf+blind). Currently it is not recognised by the Scottish government. What's the problem? @deafblindscotland is leading the push for recognition.

As #Euros2024 comes to its climax with England's involvement spare a thought for those fans who have #UsherSyndrome who are profoundly deaf and no longer have the vision to watch due to #RetinitisPigmentosa (RP). RP is so cruel there has to be a cure. #Deafblindness

Many good things and causes for celebration during #DeafblindAwarenessWeek
THERE IS ONE EXCEPTION!
After 41 years @sensecharity are ending support for #deafblind people who have #UsherSyndrome by closing Sense Usher Service. Shocking, isn't it?

#DeafblindAwarenessWeek
41 years ago pioneer Mary Guest started #UsherSyndrome support at Sense.
That was a game changer for Ushers.
Today specialist support is as vital as ever.
Yet @sensecharity are going to close Sense Usher Service.
Mary could be turning in her greave!

This week #DeafblindAwarenessWeek
Yet @sensecharity are closing Sense Usher Service!?
Where will people with #UsherSyndrome, their families, carers go now for vital support?
Are Sense no longer the charity for the #deafblind they formed for?
