Deafies is for deaf and hearing impaired people and provides a resource on a range of issues such as information for deaf children, cochlear implants, learning British sign language, deaf clubs and schools, deaf associations and equipment.

We also aim to raise deaf awareness and the site is also a source of news, forum and blogs by deaf people.

We hope that Deafies becomes THE website for everyone in the deaf community. This site is about deafness and has been created by deaf people for deaf people. If you are going deaf then please feel free to join in.

Deafies is also a resource created by its users. Please feel free to let others know about a service or event you think people should know about.

Many thanks to everyone who has signed up so far and here's hoping that all you others who regularly drop by will be tempted to join us soon.

We are also looking at a system whereby we will host the pages for your deaf club or your own personal pages.

Taking part in Deafies is free. Remember it's your community. There are no rules except that you should respect other users in every sense. We will not hesitate in banning those who consistently upset other users or who post unsuitable material.

* Yahoo users please note: after signing up, the confirmation email will probably end up in your junk folder. Please check for it there.

Deafies.co.uk will also:

* Allow clubs and societies to post news
* Provide facilities for registered members to contact each other
* And many, many more things which are just too numerous to mention now

Everyone here at Deafies wants everyone in the deaf community to use this facility as THE online meeting place for friendships and the exchange of news and views.

Enjoy!!
