Deaf Awareness Week ❤️🦻🏼

Deaf Awareness Week is an annual event raising awareness about deafness and celebrating British deaf culture, community, and history.

Deaf Awareness Week runs from 4 to 10 May 2026.

Why is Deaf Awareness Week important?
In the UK, around half of deaf children are born deaf. The other half are born hearing and become deaf as they get older.

It can be hard for families and teachers to recognise when a child is showing signs of deafness, especially if the deafness is mild, affects one ear only, or happens gradually.

Some signs of childhood deafness – like not responding when called, or preferring to play alone – can be mistaken for conditions like autism. Other signs of deafness – like not following instructions or getting frustrated easily – might be mistaken for being naughty!

The earlier a child is identified as deaf, the earlier they can be supported – whether that's through getting hearing aids, learning sign language, or having some extra help at school.

That's why we want to help raise awareness about the signs of childhood deafness. Learning to spot common signs of deafness is an important step towards making sure all deaf children get the right support at the right time.

📢 Important Update – Blood Clinic Appointments.

From Tuesday 5th May, our blood clinic will no longer operate as a walk-in service and will move to an appointment-only system.

This change is due to the ongoing fluctuation in demand, which has made it difficult to manage patient flow effectively. Following a trial period, it has become clear that a walk-in clinic is unfortunately not sustainable within the practice.

Booking appointments will help us provide a more efficient service, reduce waiting times, and ensure patients are seen in a timely and organised manner.

📞 Please contact reception to book your appointment.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
