About this event
A&E Focus Group for Deaf Residents
Friday 19 September 2025 | 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM | 2 Gerry Raffles Square, Stratford, E15 1BG
We’ve been working to improve access to emergency services for Deaf residents in Newham. Following recent changes, Sign Live will now be available 24/7, replacing Language Line’s limited 9am–5pm service.
This focus group is your chance to connect with other Deaf and Hard of Hearing residents, learn about these updates, and share your feedback on the newly updated service. Holly, our Deaf Community Outreach Worker, will be there to guide discussions and understand directly from residents about what’s working and what could be improved.
BSL interpreters will be available to ensure everyone can fully participate.
Light refreshments provided
Together, we’ll explore ways to make emergency services more accessible and inclusive for Deaf residents in Newham. Don’t miss this opportunity to share your views and help shape positive change!
