Supporting Deaf and Hard of Hearing people in Bristol

Our vision is of a Bristol where everyone can participate in all aspects of life in the city, whatever their level of hearing. The majority of our staff and trustees are Deaf or Hard of Hearing themselves and we fully understand the impact of living with Hearing Loss. We can share experiences and provide practical information and advice on dealing with the challenges hearing loss brings.
We’re here for all Deaf or Hard of Hearing people in the Bristol area, as well as their friends and families. Professionals working in this field and anyone interested in finding out more about Hearing Loss are very welcome to contact us for information too. Please visit our What’s Happening pages or get in touch to find out more!

Spotlight: Bristol Deaf 50+ Group

Check out the video below from the group members:

 

This shows just how cherished and important this group is to everyone who attends. The group meet weekly for bingo, socialising, and various interesting information sessions, all helped by funding from The Quartet Foundation through 2025. The group talk about fond memories of the group in the video, and explain why they keep coming back (some have attended for over a decade!)

The group meets up on Wednesday afternoons 1-4pm at Unitarian Meeting Hall, St Pauls, BS2 8PE

If you or anyone you know would like to join the 50+ group, please get in touch with us and we will share more information

What our clients say about us:

…I was very satisfied with the service. The two staff were professional and easy to communicate with. They were able to explain everything clearly and quickly gave me the replacement equipment.
