Access to Work for Deaf Women

NCWGB hosted a free online BSL interpreted event discussing opportunities, support requirements, challenges and barriers faced by deaf women in the world of work.

Speakers from SignHealth and Deaf Together are deaf and hard of hearing women who shared their thoughts and experiences on the Government’s scheme Access to Work: get support if you have a disability or health condition: What Access to Work is – GOV.UK

Our discussion covered:

• What works well with AtW currently
• What isn’t working well
• What needs to change, and how?

Following the presentations, the Q/A session allowed attendees to share your own thoughts.
